Tammie,

You kept saying when it came it would be good, and it was! Will I get to see one more installment before we leave (this Friday, we leave the house just after lunchtime).

Leslie

Finally!!!! The long awaited tour tale is finally here! You're off to a great start Tammie! I can't wait to read and see more!

Tammy, your picture from the plane is the northern tip of Corsica. (Don't ask me how I know, you'll think I have too much time in my hands)

Tammie Great start. Made for pleasant reading after a horrendous drive home from work. I enjoyed all the personal antedotes. Keep them coming.

Tammie. Great reading!

I am going to show your journal to my daughter, who has decided Italy may be the best place for her to turn 30 next year.

Our lovely TA has dropped off a bundle of tours for her to look at.

Looking forward to the next day (s).

Californian: Oh, go on...tell us how you know!

Penny...wow....my daughter turns 30 next year too....we were both busy in 1977!!!!

Thanks again everyone! This was lovely to wake up to and I am refueled for the next chapter!

What a pleasant surprise to wake up to, this rainy, dark cold morning.
Great start Tammie, can't wait for more.

Tammikins,
What a wonderful start to your novelette. Loved the picture from the plane. Can't wait for the next chapter. I know it will be worth waiting for.

Being selfish...I just popped in looking for Day 2.....tapping my fingers...tapping my toes..waiting, waiting....

Tammie, I loved your tale of your departure! I remember seeing the same site and am glad to know someone identified it as Corsaca (sp). I can't wait to read more!

Looking forward to the next installment......

No need for any tapping this evening .. day two is up and you are more than welcome to check it out!
One last photo to finish off this part of the tale and that is me kissing Canada goodbye and giving the Mounted Moosie a big smooch!
