There are not enough jumping blogs Howdy...Dave & Merry Jo,
I was amazed walking around Uluru & Kata Tjuta...how the shapes & colours of the monoliths constantly changed...the sides...the ends...and one is sandstone...the other conglomerate!...was not sure the language in this blog was OK...but Featured blog...so it seems my fellow Travelblogateers are a tough lot!
Keep dancing...or is it jumping?
THANKS AGAIN...DAVE & MERRY JO Front page 3 blogs in a row...much thanks to you for that...a few tips from you guys...& voila...watch this space...what a pleasure to share my stories & photos with like minded people...I hope we meet one day!
THANKS SHANE My Mali blogs have been discovered...much thanks to you for that...what a pleasure to have been able to share them... Mali awaits you... I hope your adventures are as much fun as ours...
THANKS ED So you're the guy with the amazing Russian blogs...thanks for posting a comment ...check out my previous blogs ...THE MEN ...and if you enjoy weddings...OUR TUAREG WEDDING...Relax & Enjoy...Mali awaits you
Wonderful photos - the more blogs and photos I see of yours from Mali, the more the country firms from "probable" to "definite" in my travel plans for next year.
Super story on how to stop queue jumpers in Landcruisers - will need to remember such "brash" tactics on any future travels.
WOW Hey guys, what a hoot!
Can not even begin to imagine the amazing experience you both have gone( still going?) through. I'm afraid you are not the same people we've met a while ago after this. LOVE the wedding, the colours ,the dance, the people! and so relieved to see Denise being released.
Much love
Paty & Norman
First "Our Tuareg Wedding"...then "Au Revoir Mali" Hi Laetitia,
It is a buzz to be able to share travel experiences with like-minded people around the World...most others run a mile to avoid holiday snaps...but those "in the know"...can't get enough of it!
Thanks for your support...and keep dancing (I hear you're quite a good dancer)!
Magnificent blog. Loved the airplane story. Dave and I travel because we love to meet new people and love to hear their stories. One must only listen to hear of their rich lives and experiences. As your pictures have proven....the faces of Mali are beautiful.
Fantastic, super, smashing, lovely! Wow you guys - what an amazing experience (and so funny too). Congratulations and continue to enjoy each other. Love to you both from the Jacksons - hope to see you soon! xx
Thanks for the memories Hi Dave and Denise.
Lovely to hear your version of the spectacular events around your re-marriage at the festival. It was a pleasure to behold in reality and you have recaptured the excitement and the thrill of it once more. Fabulous, and moving and funny. Thank you. With love, Wren X
Fabulous JUST INCREADIBLE WEDDING, Amazing experience I do agree it should be a highlight of the trip, what a wedding in the middle of desert I love it. Thank you & God bless you.

FROM THE WEDDING PLANNER... Renew your vows at Timbuktu?..great idea & I've given you clues...but its already been done!...I proffer a suggestion:
...being carried into a rock hewn Church in Lalibela, Ethiopia...the happy couple flanked by a collonade of priests carrying Ethiopian crosses...mmm...I like the idea...worth watering???
This was our "wet weather" option...feel free to use it!
AU REVOIR MALI...WELL NOT QUITE... Thank you Connie for your feedback...I have always been told I had no rhythm & danced to my own beat...until I got to Mali...where the locals thought I was a great dancer...but now I dance with an Ethiopian feel...& I have discovered rhythm...funny that!
Two more Mali blogs to come...just faces...then Ethiopia...stunning.
MY TUAREG WEDDING Thank you Shane for your feedback...I thought this blog that all my Mali blogs were leading to...had disappeared into the ether & not been seen...but I am now revived...I still laugh I pulled it off...dare to dream...then to do it..!
Hi David, great entry you got here, full of life & feels like discovering a bit Mali through your eyes. And yes...I got to say it...cannot believe you guys met Samba Toure, guess he is some kind of "half god" there :-)
Love your writing style I'm trying to talk my husband into going to Timbuktu to renew our vows at twenty years. Looks like your good time continues. Carry on. Glad you made it to the front page!
My wife Denise & I like to travel "on paths less travelled" that capture our imagination, inspire my photography & where we mix with locals & remain safe.
