Dangerous Looking Rides
I have to say that the thought of a BIG Ferris wheel is a bit much for me. I prefer the more gentle, grounded tea-cups or caterpillar ride that moves at a pace more in line with my own brains. On the occupation front I have a suggestion: ... are you ready?... ...sure?... I think you should be... ...the person that makes sure all the astronauts have enough dried curry (or even ranch dressing) in their little pouches to make it round the earth a few times. Your keen observations of the current space programme should stand you in good stead.

Omen...
I read this just before I was about to have my haircut in Saigon. After you mentioning that it was a Vietnamese lady who cut off your locks, I took it as a sign and aborted the mission! Have you any experiences (good or bad) with Cambodian hairdressers which you would like to share before I do anything rash?!

Um, I'm dumb.
Hey, I think I may have accidentally unsubscribed from your blog. Is there a way you can find out? I can't believe how long your hair was! How short is it now?

Thanks for the info!
Jenni It was great to read your blog concerning the train from Chengdu to Tibet. I have booked my 2 daughters (ages 8 and 11) and I on the train in March and have been worried about being able to see aout the windows, the general feeling of the train, etc. Thanks! I can't wait now. Fears relieved! Carol

More vacation days!
I totally agree with you that it is so depressing to look at working a whole year with only two (or even one!) week off! I am almost done with nursing school (May '07), and the hospital where I hope to work offers 22 vacation days, 12 holidays, 6 personal days, 10 sick days... That is pretty standard for the nursing jobs I've looked into. So be a nurse with me! You can even be a travelling nurse where companies pay your housing and transportation while you work in a new location for weeks or months at a time. There you go. I figured out your job conundrum! :) Btw... when are you going to invite me to visit you on that Florida beach??? Happy to have you back, but disappointed that I won't get your blogs.

If I remember my intro biology correctly, the malaria resistance is due to the fact that the people are recessive carriers for sickle-cell anemia. Handy genetic adaptation, sorta.

anything fried is good
i've been trying to keep up with all of the reading. I really love living vicariously through friends that are traveling. Remember when "anything fried is good" became our mantra in Ecuador?
