| 13th July 2005 Helen Jay | Simply Thanks - From: Heavenly! Again I sit with my morning coffee thuroughly captivated as I travel with you. Donna Silver was here with me for a week and I was telling her about your writting and how I can feel, taste and smell your journey.. I still print every single one of them off and John reads them when he gets home. We really enjoy you Kelly! What I will be even more interested in, is how you will be reacting to your suroundings, culture, etc., etc., when you are back in Canada. It will be another huge adjustment for you. All is well here in North Carolina.......an absolutely beautiful place to live. There is just nothing not to like about it. Take care of yourself little buddy. Looking forward to digesting more thoughts and adventures you so skillfully articulate. Love Helen |

| 24th June 2005 Helen | - From: From Hanoi to Halong Bay Yep.....I knoiw what you mean re "the way we say NS" or anything else depending on who you are talking to, or where you are. There was a hospital I worked at in Atlanta for a while where the staff would literally pull me aside and get me to say certain words. House , south and boat were very popular. You still have us captured with your journey Kelly. Nice to hear you are resting and feeling comfortable at present. Take very good care. Love Helen & John |

| 27th May 2005 anonymous | Our Beautiful Buttahfly.... - From: Swimming with the turtles on Turtle Island!

| 27th May 2005 anonymous | Were the dive instructors asian?? must have been! - From: Swimming with the turtles on Turtle Island! Kel, is there a section on here to see exactly where you are?? I'd really like that. Here's an update on my trip to Spryfeild and back everyday: Everyday I'm learning a new word. "I hit you with my gack!" This is roughly translated into I'll shoot you if you don't mess off. Things are really different in "sprytown", as the locals refer to it as. There seems to be no regard for your fellow spryvegaslites. Did I mention that everyone has a tattoo (or a kid) and they're not affraid to show them off! One startling observation is that the Tim Horton's are extremely slow and if you're not paying attention the person in the car behind you will actually pull out from behind you and sneak in front of you (true story). Unlike back home, it is advised that you keep your mouth shut for fear of running into someone who's had one too many drinks at wing night at Kokomo's. But this daily trip is well worth it considering my reason for traveling :). Not only does she make me happy, but she makes the best chicken penne known to man. I've appointed you social director for the wedding! The only down fall is the weather: RAIN, RAIN, RAIN!! Infact, if you put your ear up close enough to the computer you can probably hear it hitting the monitor (or at the very least you'll hear the hum of the fan and maybe for a split second think it is the rythmatic tones of this beautiful weather we're having. Did I mention that my hair is knotted, my lip is droopy and I'm suffering from a mild case of depression because of this east coast splendor we are currently experiencing. Anyways, just thought I'd write to say hi and stay safe. Remember, if someone trys to touch you, kick them in the twig and giggle berries, run away, and start screaming "Picanninnies ASSEMBLE!!" and we'll be on the first red eye to god knows where ever you are. You're the best! Cousin T-dot! - Cousin Timmy |
| 25th May 2005 anonymous | more pictures!! - From: I feel a healin'... Hey buttahfly! We folks back home want to see more pick-chaaaaaaaas! - Mel |
| 20th May 2005 anonymous | - From: Pure paradise... mmmmmm... lobster flavour chips, you really are in paradise! - Mel |
| 19th May 2005 anonymous | - From: Welcome to the land of smiles! Hi Kelly: It sounds like you're having a fabulous time. We'll be following your trip each week. I've been thinking about you and Peter sent me this journal via e-mail today. Keep Safe and Have fun! Lynn&Pete |
| 16th May 2005 anonymous | Awesome "blog" - From: Just call me Mogli! Kel, You look wonderful in the pics...sweat and all! Sounds like you are adjusting to life a little better this week. I thought about you tonight as I was eating barbecue spare ribs with RICE to which I added canned pineapple! Mmmmmmm...those bugs look wonderful!!!! Keep the blog coming...the kids and I keep each other updated when a new one comes in. Love ya! Kate :-) xoxoxoxo - KATE |
| 14th May 2005 anonymous | Food - From: Just call me Mogli! The can of Pringles seem a tad out of place between the Khantoke and the Bugs. Certainly reflects the global village though!! Keep the great pics coming! - Skipper |
| 13th May 2005 anonymous | wow - From: Later Bangkok, helloooo Chiang Mai! Kelly, thanks for the updates. The pictures and stories are wonderful. Be safe and be happy. And always remember wht Yogi Berra said: "When you come to a fork in the road, take it." - Phil & Linda |
| 8th May 2005 anonymous | In search of our ancestor's - From: Welcome to the land of smiles! Kel, as per our conversation about bringing more diversity into the Connors family, I hope the searching is going alright. Here's a good quote that you should adopt as your trip's motto: "Every man has his own destiny: the only imperative is to follow it, to accept it, no matter where it leads him." Kel, everywhere you go, smile for all of us. Every hand you shake, let them shake the hand of all of us. Every time you see something that is awe-inspiring and takes your breath away, take a breath for us. Everytime something funny happens, laugh as though we're all there. Everytime you have no idea where you are, remember how close we are. Everytime you meet a nice foreigner, ask yourself: Could this be him? You're the best! ~Cousin Tim - Cousin Tim |
| 7th May 2005 anonymous | What a start! - From: Welcome to the land of smiles! Hi Buttahfly I bet one of the bedroom suites with a shower on the new airbus planes would be great on a flight like that. Looks like the journey is going to be right up there with a Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Keep an eye out for 42. Skipper - Skipper |
