The name of the place must be "Uitkerke" I 'm sure and the other picture must be a tooth of... Toots Tilemans, completly disformed by playing his mouth-harmonica. Geniet verder van uw fantastische wereld-trip. Wij volgen u op de voet langs deze blog en Google earth. Etienne en Yvette - TORHOUT

Wow
Mongolia has so much mystique. Thanks for sharing. i wish i could go there but from what ive gathered, its cheaper to go to wealthier countries than to underdeveloped countries like mongolia and africa. and mongolia is beyond my budget at the moment but i hope to visit someday. thank you

How wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It looks like a dream for me... I always would like to see this palace, touch it... confirm that it isn´t a cake... ;-) And what about the tube?????!!!!!! It´s a kind of a museum... ;-)

I´ve been to Meteora!!!
Oh my God... It was in 1996... I went to Greece and Egypt during my 30 days of holidays. At that time I was able to take holidays... I organized to spend one week with a italian cousin that got married with a greek and was living at Larissa, a city in the middle of the country. And when Sunday arrived, all the family (they have three children; now in the 20´s) brings me to know this fantastic place. I became really impressed with Meteora, his history, his unique beauty. I remember very well some moments (not necessarily specials) from that day, just because the day was special. But one image remain so strong in my mind -- the blue sky. A kind of a base for a kind of a picture for that strange forms of mountains that are able to hold in each one one monastery... Well, now I would like to say something about that week that I spent with my cousin´s family in Greece, but that nothing has been with Meteora. The children of my cousin -- in that time between 6 to 10 years old) were so kind with me. They speek greek, of course, and italian -- in Italy live the biggest part of my cousin Carmela´s family. Two or three weeks before I arrived the three started to speek only italian to improve the language to talk with "that" Brazilian cousin that they didn´t understand how come was living from so far away. Look so kind: before know me, they decided, and they were only children, they WANTED to keep in touch with me. It was a lovely and unforgettable week in my life. A gift of all Gods of Greece.

Unsolicited Advice.........
Happy travels, robson and benoit. I can sense the excitement already, just reading your pre-trip blogs. Mind you, I was able to relate to the unpacking and checking and removing some stuff. Since it looks like you have a long trip ahead, you might want to take photos of your various visas, passports, credit cards, hotel vouchers if any, etc. and email it to someone or just keep it as a draft in your mailbox. Comes in handy should you lose any of these important papers. Eases the anxieties , knowing you have a copy of all docs somewhere.......... enjoy, guys!

time is always so short
Oh my God! There are missing only four days... Incredible!!!!! I will check both blogs, in English and Portuguese... ;-)))) Lots of love
