Border Crossings and more
So many borders and so little time....you do it with ease now. Sometimes it is better to go behind the public toilet and squat. I can't imagine them washing the clothes and not drying them. What's up with that? I freely admit the older we get we are the less tolerant we are of the low end public transportation. We now spend the extra money for more comfortable transportation. I applaud your efforts. I'm glad you found some internet so you could make a plan.

It is funny how as you get older you appreciate the creature comforts more, and how it is harder to do without. Travelling makes you understand how you change from a free wheeling teenager to a cranky old bugger.

Hello again!!!
I'm such a m...g! Talk about tight spots. God you made me laugh Michelle, looking at the way those bunks are set up I'd also need a shove up. The Yasaui Mausoleum is beautiful, in and out. What's with the laundry, yeah right? It's freezing here, well about 11 degrees, that makes it 9 in Club Padstow. %^&*(& hate Stalin.

Stalinmania
I think you could hold the Stalin appreciation club meeting in a phone booth. I do believe he did some good somewhere but I am still looking to find what and where.
