Amanda S's Guestbook

Kazbegi is so beautiful!
I was there in May and took the long bus ride from Tbilisi to Kazbegi and back the same day. Once we reached Stephantsminda (restaurant and town) we boarded another vehicle to see another church built by monks. It was the rockiest, scariest ride ever. Honestly, I'm still amazed by the bus ride up there - having to slow down and almost stop at the roughest sections of "highway" I've ever been on before. I do miss the Georgian lemonade though. I wish I could get that here in the US.

Crazy how good the view must have been up there Amanda. Would loved to have seen more pics of the church with the mountain smiling at it from way up there.

So picturesque!
I can't get over the beautiful pictures you have taken! It must be a feast for the eyes!

Szentendre and Balaton
Had the to see that they look much the samee great pleasure of visiting both these places myself in the eighties. Nice to see that they look so unspoilt

Happy holidays
Have a great holiday and enjoy Borneo I am sure you will find lots of wildlife if you can get off the beaten track a bit. Have just got home from our last day at school and off to the UK on Sunday. Will follow your blog as and when I can.

This sounds wonderful xxx

CCF
Myself and husband spent 2 glorious days at the wonderful Cheetah Conservation Fund. Dr.Marker who founded it is a geneticist, and she and her staff ( and volunteers) do an excellent job of caring for the orphaned and unreleasable cheetahs. We helped feed 50 cheetahs and were introduced to 3 nine month old Ambassadors who proceeded to lick us! The CCF are saving cheetahs in the wild through their research, guard dog breeding, training farmers, teaching students....and so much more. Namibia too is beautiful and so varied....I hope to return one day.
