The bamboo bed sounds horrible...i may have employed a lay-out-over-my-pack manuver...even if it would mean i was sleeping like a some strange litter of puppies.

Im diggin that couple's plan too! The- work three years, travel for a year...i shall be thinking more about that! Oh, and that link didnt work for me for some reason. I'll try again...

| 7th November 2006 G Judy | beautiful photos - From: Loy Krathong all night long Candice, the photos are great and the parade must have been awesome. Glad to hear the locals are friendly even if there is a language barrier. I always heard a big smile could break any barrier, language or otherwise. Either that or the person you're trying to communicate with thinks you must be an idiot if you go around smiling. Anyway, keep the blogs and photos coming and keep safe! Love ya...G Judy |

To let you know photos are up at my site as well http://web.mac.com/techintrepid. |
| 5th November 2006 Lindsay | does my breath smell like burger? 'cause it tastes like burger!! - From: A Brief Exploration of bangkok Aww yay I'm so glad you're meeting cool, cute people and having such a blast. I sooo cannot wait to come visit. I'm already preparing myself for the crazyness I'm going to experience with you, not that crazyness is anything too out of the ordinary for us heh heh. You know, when the going gets weird, the weird turn pro. Learn it, live it, love it baby. So be careful and enjoy yourself, and as always, just "take it easy". You know =P Keep on having fun kiddo, and I will be seeing you soon. I love you so much. ~~LindsAAAAy |

| 4th November 2006 Grandma Judy | trial - From: I made it.... Joined Travelblog to see if my comments can be submitted and approved quicker than they have been. I should have used Travelblog on my trip to North Carolina and the Outer Banks...oh well, maybe next time. Anyway, have fun and keep safe. Love you lots my retro 60's granddaughter! |
| 4th November 2006 Mom | Just give it time.... - From: I made it.... You'll meet some interesting people, see some sights and have a great time! I miss you already! Love, Mom PS- Don't forget to be careful!!! |
| 4th November 2006 G Judy | Get some sleep - From: I made it.... Glad to hear you made it there. Sounds like you might be suffering from jetlag. Get you some good sleep and rest....even you "20ish" adults need to rest at times. You'll feel better and ready to begin your adventure with renewed engergy. BTW...if you meet anymore Brits...tell them you're a TEXAN! They might be intrigued because some of them still think Texas is the wild west where guys go around with six-shooters, ride wild horses and have gunfights....no concept of 21st century Texas. Anyway, get caught up on your sleep so you can experience this adventure. Take care of yourself please....and like I said before....I'm just an old grandma but I'll be praying for you at all times while you're so far away. Love you mucho....G Judy |
| 4th November 2006 Russ | Hi Candice! - From: I made it.... I am hanging on every word. A bit jealous too.. |
| 4th November 2006 LindsAy | Miss Canadian.... - From: I made it.... Hey hey HEY (you know). Barely arrived and already arguing, even though those of us who know you know you NEVER do that. I love it. I know you're about to be enjoying a ridonkulous amount of experiences, and I most definitely can't wait until I get to come visit. Until then, be careful, eat more food, and drink a lot of water (you gotta stay hydrated man), and of course, as always, take it easy. Talk to you soon, kiddo! I love you! Straight up <3 |
| 4th November 2006 Dani | Oh, and by the way... - From: I made it.... Oh yeah! Also, I have a friend that i went to high school with that lives in Thailand right now! Very cool dude. He's actually in bangkok i believe. I just wrote him a message to get his contact info for you if you need it, or would like a little safety zone to retreat to! I'll send it to you when i have it! |
| 4th November 2006 Dani | Awwwww! - From: I made it.... Awwww you're feeling lonely candice? Poor thing! Never forget that there are people over here in the dirty American land stoked for you, and eagerly waiting your exploration and reports! I think it will probably take a little while to settle in, i mean Shoot...its a whole NEW world over there. Just like Jasmine said. Just the jet lag alone has got to be tough. But, you'll regather yourself soon chick! And when you do...TONS of adventure is waiting you there! I am so impressed with your bravery and adventure. Namaste candice. Now find someplace comfy, safe, and warm...grub...sleep...smile...and meditate until you are ready to take that place on full force. Sending lots of warm non-lonely vibes your way chick!! |
| 29th October 2006 Mom | I can't believe it's here! - From: (Said in a disconcerting whisper): "Seven Days" Time passes by so fast. I will miss you sooooo much. I think that I speak for everyone when I say that we will look forward to your blog entries. Yes, Sweetie, most of us "nine to fivers" are living vicariously through you! Have a wonderful experience in SE Asia, but please keep safety first and foremost in mind. I love you, Mom |

| 17th July 2006 PaWilkins | Which part of SE Asia? - From: Southeast Asia, Here I Come! You are an amazing and strong willed person to plan such a trip as this. When you see third world countries, it can permanently change your perception on the things that most people take for granted here in America. I have business associates that always, "Get you immunizations!". I trust that you will be well prepared. Please be careful and take plenty of pictures. I will frequent your travel blog. Tell me, if you need anything. Love ya, Steve |

| 26th June 2006 Mom | Vacation! - From: A Short Trip to Isla de Sur Padre If your not working it's a vacation! And a vacation ANYWHERE is better than working! I hear SPI is very pretty...never been down that far. Have a great time and of course beeee careful! Love, Mom |
| 23rd June 2006 Dani | Raaaad! - From: A Short Trip to Isla de Sur Padre Totally rad! Just a short little blip down the way! You have time, you guys should scoot up to Colorado for the Rainbow Gathering! We're headed out tonight or tomorrow (friday or saturday) and will be there until about the 5th or 6th! Camping, hippies, psychedelics, drums, other shit. Nederland, Colorado here we come! |
| 23rd June 2006 G Judy | - From: A Short Trip to Isla de Sur Padre Sometimes the best places to visit are right in our own back yard practically. South Padre Island...close to home and beautiful! Nice place to relax, take in the sun (but not too much), eat, drink and just "chill" out. Pics are good and James is really handsome with his short haircut! Have a good time and keep safe....Grandma J |
| 21st June 2006 christo | COLORADO!! - From: Costa Rica Hi Candace! IT'S GREAT TO HEAR FROM YOU! i haven't seen you all in a while. and now's the best time to be looking for an adventure, because we're going on one, starting this friday night or saturday morning- about 5 of us are taking the veggie bus to the National Rainbow Gathering in Nederlands, Colorado! It is already going on; we plan to be there around the 26, and stay until the 5th. the 4th is the BIG holiday there. i'm sure we've talked about rainbow before, right? more info on wikipedia. aggghhhhh!!! we're getting so excited. our first! so if you want to caravan, we'll be through austin early saturday morning, or we can set whatever up. ya'll are welcome to jump onto the veg-bus if you'd like to! although it may behoove us to have a scout vehicle along. anyway, think it over! oh, and if you want to go to costa rica, i have some friends who have a jungle farm there, all permacultured out. they said we can visit whenever we want, and live there. they actually are looking for caretakers while they're travelling, goddarnitt, and asked me to find some. if you guys are interested. we're headed to costa rica sometime too! thinking about getting some land in a few years. i'm glad to hear from you. and to see your exploding military frump picture! haha! HOPE YOU BOTH ARE DOING WELL!! and being well. -christo |
| 18th June 2006 Mom | Finally!!! - From: Costa Rica Boring? I don't think so! Shoot! I am ready to experience a bit a adventure. Even if it has to be through the safety of my computer monitor. I hope that your plans work out. Love, Mom |
| 17th June 2006 Dani | Holy Crap! - From: Costa Rica If you guys go to CR...im officially going to tinkle in my pants. Which is a celebratory thing...SO GO!!! Scout out that land ga'damnit...because i want to move my ass there!!! |
| 17th June 2006 G Judy | - From: Costa Rica The traveling blood is flowing again I see. I know you both will have a great adventure down there. They say it's a beautiful place. Before you go in August though, let your travel muse guide you up north to Oklahoma for a few days. I'd love to see you before you embark on the Costa Rico sojourn. Love you.....G Judy |
| 24th February 2006 Maleny | From a mexican. - From: Sol Escondido Well...sorry if you have some bad experience, I think all happen is you weren´t clear in what you was looking for...like in every country, each place you go is not the same, and you can´t find culture and traditions same in every town, city or place you go...is the magic of mexico, big country, great contrast, but ever beutifull, magic and places to each kind of people, key? looking addecuate place for you...Welcome mexico every time you want to came!! |
| 12th September 2005 Christo | Zoolicious! - From: Houston Zoo Hi Candice! Great pix from the zoo. dani and i went there a few weeks ago (but didn't get to see everything as a huge rainstorm and a few family members forced us out early.) i know what you mean about the captivity; i don't like either... but still want to see the animals. it's cool to be able to read your blogs again. how have you been, overall? we've been busy busy with the veggie stuff. school is pretty easy, and a few classes are very interesting (like psych of personality, yeah!) anwyay, we should set up a visit sometime soon! say hi to james for me. talk with you later, christo |
| 12th September 2005 Grandma Judy | Zoo - From: Houston Zoo Hey Candice...glad you enjoyed your trip to the Houston Zoo....did you go to the snake house? That was always the scariest place I found when we would go to the zoo. Course, I'm sure they've changed the whole zoo layout since we visited the zoo with your Mom and David. Houston has a good zoo but the best I've ever attended was the Breckenridge Zoo in San Antonio...it was great and the animals had lots of room to roam....and of course that's probably changed since the 70s. Anyway, glad you had a good time and the pictures are very good....you're turning into a knowledgeable photographer with a discerning eye toward your subject. Take care....email me or better yet....come north across the Red River! Love you....G Judy |
| 7th September 2005 Mom | Hi Sweets! - From: Titillation Tofu It's such a treat to open my email and see a travelblog entry notice from you. First I was excited and then worried....Oh Goodness...where did they go! Zaire! To my surprise, Houston, Texas! I take it that James's family moved down since last I talked to you. That's great for ya'll less driving to see families. Especially with gas prices so high. Also, great pics. Although I could do without the spiders. I love the photo of peppers. so fresh and colorful, appealing to the eye. See ya'll soon, Love, Mom PS-I don't know when you'll be here but I will be in San Antonio Wed-Fri this week and in Vegas 18-20 |
| 6th September 2005 Danielle | THERE YOU GUYS ARE! - From: Titillation Tofu Hey! Awesome to see where you guys are! Glad to see James made it out of PPD alright, haha! Chris and I were just at the Houston Nat. Hist. Museum a month or so ago- it needs some updating. but it was cool none-the-less! If you guys are heading down to corpus, give us a call! Love you guys! |
| 6th September 2005 Grandma Judy | creepy crawler - From: Titillation Tofu BTW..what kind of spider is that in your pictures? Also, the puppies are sooooo cute! |
| 6th September 2005 Grandma Judy | - From: Titillation Tofu Great to see another entry from you. And the picture of you and James is wonderful. The pictures of the butterflys and various other critters are so good! I'm looking forward to your visit up here in hot and dry Oklahoma and some of your creative cooking. Have fun in Houston and remember me when you go to Barnes & Noble...have a cup of mocha for me! Love you both....J |
| 6th September 2005 Angie | - From: Titillation Tofu Hey you, Are you back in Austin these days or living in Houston? If you are in Austin, we should get together. I bought a house and would love to have you over for drinks and discussions of poetry and tofu:). Hope all is going well for you. Angie |
| 15th July 2005 dani | you are in reality - From: Six Days Im sorry grandma judy, no disrespect but candice is in reality NOW! Texas isnt reality..home isnt reality. now is reality *wink*. I know you know that candice, but I also know you struggle (like i do) about appreciating the now. Like you said in your post "Why is it so hard to be happy? Why does it seem so impossible to appreciate where you are while you are there, instead of after you've left?". I wish i could find the secret key that would just allow us to say- "shit...this exact moment is AWESOME". I think because that is near impossible is why i like to document things- because everything up until this moment...and this one...and this one...is a memory. My entire life is a memory, and being human i have the damnable ability to be flawed- including my memories. Documenting things then sort of brings more truth to those memories and therefore my life (i hope). But you did have an excellent adventure, and if you can trust yourself on that- being that you are the actual adventurer in the non-now delema- then trust your observers (like me and grandma). haha! I look forward to seeing you guys and hearing your stories. I hope you can come on by corpus before austin! Much love, chica! |
| 15th July 2005 Aunt Jan | - From: Six Days I bet a lot of young adults wish that they could have done what you guys did in 1/2 the time. You now have memories that you can always share that I bet others around you could not. Try a hiking and camping trip in the mountains of Colorda, you would love it...but then again, I'm biased. I'm glad you are safe, happy and healthy and hading home...even if it is Austin. Take care...love you, Jan. |
| 15th July 2005 Grandma Judy | - From: Six Days I know you've had a good time down there even with all the setbacks, i.e., bad cold, high prices, greedy people, etc., but you have had a wonderful adventure on the road of life and survived it! Congratulations! Guess all good things must come to an end and alas....back to Texas and reality....but you'll have tons of memories about this trip. The Texas Gulf Coast sounds like a good place to live if you want to be near water...of course I'm sure the Pacific makes the Gulf look like a down and out cousin. Keep safe on the trip back. LOL...G Judy |
| 15th July 2005 Mom | Sad but Happy - From: Six Days I'm sorry to hear that your trip had to end so soon but(selfishly) I am happy that ya'll are coming home! I will miss these journals though. I guess we'll all have to wait for the next adventure. Have a safe trip and call me when you get to Austin. Love, Mom |
| 14th July 2005 Mom | A few things... - From: Saturday Night Poi Hey Sweets... I'm glad to hear that you are feeling a little better. :) Hope you've fully recovered soon. Thanks for posting pics of the Poi. You had described it to me before yet I couldn't get a visual on it. I know that a still photo can't capture the overall essence of the dance but it can give all of us "blog voyeurs" an idea. Plus the night shots are cool looking! Glad that you had an opportunity to see it live. Love, Mom |
| 11th July 2005 PaWilkins | Hello from Pa - From: Additionally Hola, Espero que usted sea sano. Escribí un comentario una vez. Falló. Suena como usted está teniendo una buena visita. Largos vivos y prosperan. Amor, PA p.s. http://dictionary.reference.com/translate/text.html |
| 8th July 2005 Aunt Jan | - From: Funny. I hope that you start feeling better soon. You probably have a cold from all that rain you had. Stay warm and come home soon. love you, Aunt Jan |
| 7th July 2005 Grandma Judy | - From: Funny. Sorry to hear you're ailing.....chicken soup is always good for a cold and I bet you'd find lots of chickens running around...only trouble is you'd have to catch them, wring their necks, dress them out and cook the soup...instead, drink lots of juices (if you can find them), stay warm and you might even fix a hot-toddy...they're a cure-all for a cold! You can't stay feeling bad...there's too many adventures waiting for you......get well quick! I'll have a hot toddy for you! Love ya....G Judy |
| 7th July 2005 Mom | Mexico=cold for Candice - From: Funny. Hey it's not the first time that you've suffered a cold in Mexico...remember Cozumel? UGH! On the bright side you ARE in Mexico...hit the pharmacia running...as you know they have it all. That nasty ole bug'll be gone in no time! LOL Hope you feel better. Love, Mom |
| 7th July 2005 Antonia | Awww..... - From: Funny. I will pray to Jesus Chris the Lord in Heaven, son of God, for your health! I will have my church also pray. I will light a candle and... sorry I got carried away... lol |
| 7th July 2005 Danielle | Got me! - From: Funny. You're right I was excited! Well...atleast post a picture of your snotty nose! |
| 4th July 2005 Danielle | HOLY CRAP!! - From: And the Gods of Adventure Smiled Down... Wow freaking wow. Very excellent! Now thats a fucking adventure! I, unlike the other commentors, would have love to seen that dead goat in a wheel chair...i know that disapointment of not being able to capture those unique moments on film...but perhaps you guys can draw a rendition and then take a photo of it! haha! Wow, I wish Chris and I were with you guys on that one. Well- the whole thing sounds like an amazing adventure. I would have loved to have to suffer the hell of that hike- i completely undestand your wish to not have that truck come by. A wet tented night sound painful but...enlightening. i love your brain candice! Im really glad you posted those picture, it is a completely different world to me. So seeing those photos are awesome. And man- what a great bonding experience that must have been for you and james! HAHA! I cracked up about the retelling of the Star Wars Trilogy- that is hilarious!! Hell Yeah James! Anyway- you totally "deserve" that rest now! I hope your feet arent too blistered. You should take some photos if they are! Enjoy your rest my friend! |
| 2nd July 2005 Grandma Judy | - From: And the Gods of Adventure Smiled Down... What an adventure! You guys are surely the bravest couple I know! Thanks for not taking a picture of the dead goat.....I have a mental picture of it and it's not pretty. The waterfall was beautiful and the whole countryside is so green. HOpe you brought an extra pair of shoes for these adventures...sounds like you'll need them. That's another world down there for sure. Guess you have discovered that there are jerks in very culture but at the same time there are friendly, courteous and caring people also. The jerks think all people who live north of the Rio Grande are millionaires and they take advantage of the tourists....those kind of people will be judged one day for their greed. Anyway, enough of that. Rest up and go to the next big adventure...it's right around the corner somewhere. Love you....Grandma Judy |
| 2nd July 2005 Antonia | lmao - From: And the Gods of Adventure Smiled Down... '... wheelchair sitting there with a fully grown, dead, male goat sitting upright in it..." That is the funniest thing I've read in a long while. I'm glad I didn't see a picture of it, as your short description was enough for a great mental picture!!! Thanks! I love you both, Toni |
| 1st July 2005 melody | beautiful!!! - From: Inspiration and Adventure Hey i hope i am doing this right...to post a comment.I was just contacting you before. Anyways i would be so happy to be where you are at right now,thats all you needed, a mind set of adventure...just make the most of where you are at. I was wondering if you were taking all those photos yourselves, they really are beautiful.It looks like alot of fun, and i am glad you guys met some peeps too.

I dont know if they will be shooting fire works out there but we'll be in houston so i wont get you reply until tues or so. I love yall be safe...take a picture of the waterfall for me. |
| 30th June 2005 Grandma Judy | - From: Inspiration and Adventure The photos you've taken are so good. The photo of the sunset (both of them) are beautiful. Did the crab end up on the dinner table? Hope not. So glad you're feeling better about the trip and are ready to meet the challenges ahead. You'll do fine and so will James. It's good that you've met some other young explorers down there. All of you will have a great time...a once in a lifetime experience and like someone commented...something to tell your future kids. You and James are truly a retro 60's generation! Have fun and drink one for me and my neighbor! Looking forward to the next entry. Love ya....G Judy |
| 30th June 2005 Mom | Comments - From: Inspiration and Adventure My comments are not showing up when logged in. Any idea what I am doing wrong? Love, Mom |
| 30th June 2005 Babsee101 | Wow... what a beautiful place! - From: Inspiration and Adventure I am so glad that you have put up pics. The new camera takes great photos. Not to mention, you have an eye for the perfect shot. I'm so glad to hear that the sun is finally shining on your adventure. Enjoy your visit to La Reforma, it sounds wonderful. Be sure to take photos so your faithful followers(us) can see it too. Love you, Hugs and kisses.....Mom |
| 30th June 2005 Danielle | Tragic! - From: Sol Escondido Wow candice, what an incredibly aware mind you have! I can completely understand your situation, and I see it as a tremendous tragedy! Though my dreams of culture and primitive existence that I was living through you guys is a bit dashed, it is so intelligent of you to recognize what is going on there (and beautifully written too). Isn't it true though, that no place is really what we want it to be completely? It seems though, that you have found some things- like jewlery making, cheap food and drinks, beautiful buildings and temples, surfing...just remember that this adventure will be a memory one day. And though you may see it as a let down- think about telling your kids about it in the future- they're going to love it. That culture is the culture that exists- distorted and westernized as we may think it is. Shitty but true...I know you guys will make something meaningful of it. |
| 28th June 2005 G Judy | - From: Sol Escondido Great photos. James must have discovered a long lost twin down there. I guess you cant go anywhere in the world without the American influence...the commercialism there is probably like anywhere else on this planet. According to a site I visited on the net, the town used to be a sleepy little fishing village until they built a highway from through it and people discovered the quaint little fishing village and things have never been the same. I would hope that somewhere in this world there are unspoiled places where life is simple and people haven't been corrupted by 21st century consumerism. I hope you are able to find such a place somewhere in Mexico. In the meantime..enjoy the beautiful scenery and the Mexican food and beverage! Miss you and love you.....G Judy |
| 26th June 2005 kathy alex | i miss you so - From: Photos Phinally! im so glad youre having a great time i miss you and james i plan to come in september i hope you will be there i got a new bf hes cute his name is Greyson.... thats about all thats new oh yeah the new apartment is great i love you best friend for life!!!! |
| 24th June 2005 Angie | Hey Surfer Girl - From: Photos Phinally! You're trip sounds FANTASTIC Candice. The place on the beach definitely sounds like PARADISE and all your adventures getting there were so much fun to read, too! For the last year I have been trying to improve my Spanish and this site has some helpful articles and lessons http://spanish.about.com/. Nothing like being immersed to really learn though! Good luck with the surfing too- sounds like SO much fun! Looking forward to your next entry. Angie |
| 22nd June 2005 emberjeunesse | Uncle Scott, Spirit walk? - From: Map and Peyote and Things my email is catatennui@yahoo.com... I don´t have your email on me, and I don´t want to post my number on the web, so you know....email me.... |
| 21st June 2005 Babsee101 | Hey Sweetie, - From: Map and Peyote and Things Hello from sunny California (Santa Clara county)!!! I think that I found a new location that I want to live. The climate is absolutely perfect and scenery beautiful. I'm sorry that your experience wasn't what you expected...But you don't need that stuff anyway! There are many free photo sites but they usually will only allow up to 50 meg. Try myphotoalbum.com. I have not used it before. Be sure to shrink your photos prior to loading so that you can fit as many as possible. Hope the sun comes....I want to see the waters of the Pacific side of Mexico. Hugs and kisses.... Love, MOM |
| 21st June 2005 Scott | Return to Amerika - From: Puerto Escondido When are you planning on returning? Susie is doing a family get-together around the 4th. I'll be there until the 12th or so. I don't have a current phone # or e-mail for you. You already have mine. There's some things you need (emphasised) to know about. Namaste. |

| 20th June 2005 Grandma Judy | - From: Puerto Escondido Where on the map is this paradise you will be staying in for a while? Where is it in relation to Mexico City? Couldnt find it on the map.
