March, 2012 ~ Returned from 9 days in Costa Rica and am still in "Pura Vida" heaven. Great adventures, great people, great scenery. Please visit my new page on Costa Rica page.
October, 2011 ~ Bermuda was wonderful, even better than I expected, and the weather was really delightful. The Bermudian people were exceptionally friendly and welcoming. Although the food was good, the legendary "Swizzle Inn" was hugely disappointing. The main towns of Hamilton and St. George's and, of course, the beaches were really fabulous to see.
May - June, 2011 ~ Venice Venice, Italy; Split, Croatia; Athens, Greece; Istanbul, Turkey; Mykonos, Greece; Santorini, Greece; Kusadasi, Turkey; and last but not least, Katakolon (Olympia), Greece.
February, 2011 ~ Several days exploring old, downtown Norfolk, Virginia, on foot. A great time for reconnecting with this city (which I like so much) where I spent 4 years in college +, worked and met my husband!
Please visit my new Norfolk, Virginia

I would appreciate ANY postcards very much. I'd be glad to send you one as well.

Thanks for looking at Palma Mallorca. The Le Seu was wonderful, and agree the rest is a short walk around
Sorry I didnt send you a card from Guyana (or Suriname), but that was before I had your address. I do like getting to places less traveled! I'm in the scheming phase of maybe going to French Guiana.
Sylvia, You must be physic! I was thinking about you, and at the same time you read the "Mont" page! Its a wonderful place, so glad it brought back happy memories.
I am in the same boat as you regarding the Nam. It was glorious to help those over tehre but also to see the sights through the eyes of those who spent their youth their. Cheers from the Pacific!
Hi Sylvia! Thank you for visiting my Cotopaxi page! It was absolutly amazing to climb the volcano a starlit night.
Thank you for the money from Costa Rica! I was unable to find stamps for the Kuwait postcard, so my friend is supposed to be sending it to you. She's a little slow -- but I'm confident she'll do it one of these days.
Hello Sylvia: Thanks for checking out my Belle River pages. It's a small community very near and dear to us. I just love the Canada geese. There's a bunch of new babies again.
Hi Sylvia, Thanks for enjoying the elefants with me! Must check out your Costa Rica pages one of these days as I always dreamt of going there one day.
Thank you, Sylvia
I hope you had a nice day also.
Thank you for visiting little Hillsboro with me Sylvia, and for the lovely comment :-)
