| 13th April 2007 gailpsal@aol.com | Laura Ingalls to Mt.Rushmore - From: Presidential Fireworks Started by looking for Laura Ingalls for my 8yr old grandson and found the Bonds! What a wonderful blog! Ending up with Mt. Rushmore was an unexpected treat! It's on my list of places to go. Where are you going next? Keep us armchair travelers informed! P.S.

| 12th January 2007 Maureen | The Alnwick Garden, northumberland - From: The Brave Knight, The Poison Garden and The Missing Sea Monster The Alnwick Garden, although next door to Alnwick Castle doesn't belong to the castle it's a stand alone charity which the Duchess of Northumberland is a trustee (prince charles is patron). As such its open all year round (except Christmas Day) with activities for all of teh famuily - look out for their ADVENTure at the Alnwick Garden christmas activities - thousands of lights and a elf trail to fatehr Christmas - utterly none commercial and beautiful. For more info on The Alnwick Garden check out their excellent website www.alnwickgarden.com |

| 20th February 2006 Jeff | American Soldier - From: FAIRYTALES & NIGHTMARES Hi! Great picture of the Checkpoint Charlie memorial. I was the American Soldier whose picture hangs there and troll the Internet occassionally just to see where it has turned up. I read once that I was the last US Soldier to die in WWII and thought that was a hoot. Well, take care and I hope you enjoyed my crooked tie in your photo album. All the best Jeff |
| 11th December 2005 laura | I know that this is a little strange - From: Best Tour Guide in Portugal! If you even still check this site...I know "Aunt Linda" and she is the best tour guide ever for Portugal. I visited my brother, who was interning with Ron from Jan. to July, in Lisbon for a weekend and Linda took us around. I was currently looking for the name of the monestary we went to in the mountains that Linda took us to, when I stumbled upon your site. Your pictures looked remarkably like most of the places that we went. Thanks to your travel blog, I have the name of the monestary so I can research it for something that I plan to put together for my father for a Christmas gift with one of the pictures that I printed in my photography minor at school. How Amazing!! Thank you. |
| 12th September 2005 Kate Hildebrand | - From: Thanks Travelblog… Until we Blog again! I loved reading your blog and I'm so sad to see this end! |
| 3rd September 2005 Babsee101 | I enjoyed following ya'll - From: Thanks Travelblog… Until we Blog again! What an amazing adventure you have had. I will miss experiencing it with you through my eyes and laptop! Thanks for sharing! |
| 23rd August 2005 Valpal | Pet keeper - From: Thanks Travelblog… Until we Blog again! Hey, The Bonds are great people. Too bad you don't know them "Terrierwoman". I do and I am very lucky indeed. Glad you all made it home safe and sound. Love ya me |
| 23rd August 2005 Terrierwoman | Sad to see it end. - From: Thanks Travelblog… Until we Blog again! Well, I don't know who you are but I have enjoyed getting your blog. Maybe someday if you are lucky, we will meet and become life long friends. But for now my email will not be full of "Bond Adventures". Can anyone out there tell me who these people are? |
| 10th August 2005 Iris | The essence - From: Postcards from Norway You have REALLY captured the essence of Norway! :-) Hope you had a wonderful time in my country. |
| 6th August 2005 Bond Family | Probably Right! - From: LONDON TIMING Thanks Jason, when we were choosing the photos for this blog we weren't sure about the location. Your probably right. London holds a special place in our memories...Your fortunate to live in such a wonderful city! Best Regards |
| 5th August 2005 Jason | "Guard near Downing St." - From: LONDON TIMING Hope you enjoyed your visit to our city. I'm not sure that photo is a "guard near Downing St" it looks like St James' Palace to me. |
| 29th July 2005 Alicia | Japan - old and new - From: Japan...where you pay big bucks to sleep on the floor I loved your comment about Japan being a woderful blend of old and new. It is a wonderful place. I'm from Colorado, but spent 2 years in Japan with my husband, studying and working. We loved every minute of it. When we visited Kyoto we were amazed with the culture and the Buddha in Nara was increadible. Don't worry even after 2 years of Japanese I still get confused by the Tokyo subway/train system. You have to learn to think in colors not in north/south/east/west directions. At one point I did look into buying a toilet seat to send to my parents as a christmas present. It's remarkably expensive and complicated so I gave up on the idea. I'm so glad that you enjoyed Japan, it has a special place in my heart. |
| 23rd July 2005 deleted_2211 | Lovely Do - From: LONDON TIMING Allana, I can't believe how much your hair has grown! Love the cut, it looks GORGEOUS, as do you. Do I see fish net hose? My, my, my. ISH-MI-LAH, NO WE WILL NOT LET YOU GO (words off a little? spelling, for sure)--Love Carmen |
| 22nd July 2005 Val | Heart felt thanks. - From: LONDON TIMING Thank you, Rob and Janine, for praying for my need in your time of need. My heart goes out to all the people of London. Stay strong and trust in God, He will help you see hard times through. May God bless you and watch over you. Love in Christ, Val (I hope you get a chance to read this.) Hey Bonds, looking forward to seeing you soon. Stay safe and remember sometimes you should listen to the locals, you know about traffic. But then again it would not be your trip if you didn't do things your way. Love you all very much! Val |
| 16th July 2005 Terrierwoman | What's up with complaints!! - From: The Brave Knight, The Poison Garden and The Missing Sea Monster Hey, i don't know these strange blond bonds but they are doing a lot of traveling so give them a break if they don't know the difference between scottland and england. They're just countries you know and well they have green grass and stuff in them both. Easy mistake!!! Now, back to these blond bonds who keep sending me their travel blog. If I were a person who know your past and future, which i don't, i would say that you may have a dog and for sure a cat. That shortest blond bond looks like a cat person. And I know you didn't take them with you so you must have found some great friend to watch and take care of them for you. Am I right?????? Still, even though I don't know you and I am not sure why you keep sending me your pictures, I do love the pictures, and I don't care if they are of England or Scotland. Whoever you are stay safe! |
| 16th July 2005 anonymous | Baa Baa - From: The Brave Knight, The Poison Garden and The Missing Sea Monster Baa Baa black sheep--oops, I mean white sheep, have you any Scotts? Yes sir, not in the meadow, but in the parking lots! Lovely country--C |

| 15th July 2005 Bond Family | Sorry - From: The Brave Knight, The Poison Garden and The Missing Sea Monster Sorry if it seemed a little confusing, we visited Alnwick before driving over the Scottish Border. The Alnwick Castle is located on the outskirts of Alnwick Town England,just off the A1 highway about 30 miles from the border. Thanks, we definitely don't want any Scotsmen mad at us... we saw braveheart! |
| 15th July 2005 rich | - From: The Brave Knight, The Poison Garden and The Missing Sea Monster i appreciate itīs picky, but if the castleīs in Scotland then itīs not in England. Great Britain will do nicely though. Isnīt really an issue but some Scotsmen get irratable about it. Good entry though |
