Hados, i'm amazed how fast you created the blog. I sadly admit that I've missed lots of good pictures by using video rather than using camera.It was fun seeing our photo right at the start of your blog. Indeed , it was a great reunion and a great trip, it was like sailing into a good dream. Looking forward to our next one. Lots of love, keep it flowing... aviva
