| 5th May 2008 Mom | catching up - From: do not ever sleep on a ferry for free. I've been catching up on your blogs. I'm certainly glad you have Nate with you if you insist on doing things like hitch-hiking, sleeping in random places, and sitting in unassigned seats! I can't believe you're going to be roaming around Europe for another month still. Have fun. Be careful! Love you, Mom xo |

| 29th April 2008 Nate's Mom | A Bad Day - From: A light at the end of the tunnel I am a cancer survivor. Yes, it has been 7 years since I heard the dreaded news...but I am ALIVE. Someone gave me an antique silver spoon that had be cut off at the gorgeous scrolled end and polished around like a smooth stone. Inscribed on the back it says: "A bad day makes good ones even better!" Be smart, be cautious, but SEIZE the Day! I know it sounds cliche'...but it is true. Money can be replaced, but not a life. Enjoy EVERYTHING you do and stay SAFE. Thanks Megan for you updates! Nate's MOM. |

| 22nd April 2008 Nozomi | Can't believe... - From: the last boat post Hey ya Megan! I have been enjoying your blog since I disembarked from the ship in January, and I cannot believe that it is already the time for you to go back to the life on a ground. As I could see from some of your posts, it seems like we had some similar activities on board, which always made me miss my life on the ship. Thanks for keeping up your fascinating blog posts during your trip! Also, congrats on finishing up with your on-board academic work! I hope that we can see each other and talk about the boat life/experience at ports of calls some day xox |

| 16th April 2008 Dad | MEGS - From: on our way to lisbon we'll leave a key to the house under the door mat. Your car is worth more now than when you parked it; it's full of $2.50/gallon gasoline. |
| 16th April 2008 Mom | You've come a long way, baby! - From: on our way to lisbon Hard to believe you're finishing up. The experience certainly ended differently than it started! Enjoy your last few days. You've made some nice friends and you'll be able to hook up again...somewhere in the world! Love you, Mom p.s. we left your car in the garage and didn't drive it this time! |

| 8th April 2008 tamikidakika | Tarikats - From: Istanbul part 2 didn`t you notice that these religious groups (known as tarikats) are outlawed in Turkey, so you went through an illegal 2 hours during your stay in Turkey (I think this is a good explanation to your question that why didn`t they do the ceremony in a worship place but an house) , and sure it`s an exotic thing to display here, but I would stay away from these people. and I`m saying this as a Turk. |
| 7th April 2008 LuLu Jr | Want fries with that Shaykh? - From: Istanbul part 2 Megs -you're on a great adventure. Mom and I love you very much. Sorry the phone call didn't go thru on Sunday am. Peace out |

| 3rd April 2008 LuLu Jr | Cool - From: Istanbul! Megan: how cool to be there when the torch was passed. I saw the torch runner at the start of the 1980 Winter Olympics in Lake Placid NY with your grandfather Carpenter. But we didn't get that close! Sounds like you are having fun. Why isn't the blue mosque blue? Love you, Dad |
| 3rd April 2008 Mom | Pictures, please. - From: Istanbul! Hey, Megs, where are the pictures???? |
| 31st March 2008 Mom | TSS - From: ugh... At this point you probably should just find out at which schools you can use your gov't financial aid and go from there. TSS definitely needs to get more organized! |
| 31st March 2008 Mom | ahhh....Paris - From: random things Chocolate pots, good wine, beautiful art. We did have fun, didn't we? It's hard to believe it was just one year ago that I boarded that airplane! Miss you. Love, Mom xoxo |

Coca-Cola will et you try it in their factory and you can try it out in the real worl don your travels. The same exists with price on that. Great blog. Also to stranger from MO: Independence, MO gave me a flashback of Oregon Trail computer game. Happy travels. |
| 20th March 2008 Will | Interesting - From: some more thoughts... This course is clearly good for you. It's fascinating to read your thoughts set out like this (and the previous entry), and it's no wonder people from all over are reading and commenting. Funnily enough, i picked up an Algerian hitch-hiker yesterday. We talked about religion and terrorism, it was fascinating to hear his views too. x |
| 20th March 2008 Srini | Skittles - From: skittles Hi Megan, Srini here. Indian, living here in dubai.. Happened to come across your blog two days back and following your travels closely.

| 18th March 2008 Bisquitlips | Skittles - From: skittles Megan, I hope you don't mind a "stranger" investing some time reading your blogs. I am in Independence, Missouri and have fully enjoyed reading of your adventures. I am a "World Traveler" and have traveled to every continent on the Earth save Australia. (Just haven't seen a desire to go there). Your Skittles muse was enlightening! I just wanted to say that there are probably many of us following your travels whom you do not know. Best of luck to you and I hope that your experiences will enrich your life in the extreme. Kind Regards, Richard |
