Freedom 55's Guestbook

Yep, I have been told it rains, alot
The Irish boys I worked with said that the west coast was the scenic coast. Apparently a mist or rain is common. The dryness of Saskatchewan was a surprise to them.

Happy New Year
Happy new Year to you and Chris. Hopefully we will see you sometime in 2014. Have a great trip home.

Welcome back, Saw Fraser (RBC) who said that he had saw you. As I said previously, great commentary, great pictures, I particularily like your water reflections. Diane has purchased another camera for our next trip, which she says is not as bulky but can capture a penguin on the run (how fast of a shutter speed do you need?). Talk with you later, say hi to Chris. Milton

OMG-Thanks for the great trip journal/ blog and all the wonderful pix. Enjoyed it all vicariously as I recovered from my 580Km of road running the last 4months in prep to leave this week for the Chicago MARATHON, (then Toronto). Definitely should be Europe again in 2014....! Hopefully you won\'t be too bored in SASK and can recoup before leaving again.....!! A x

Love your hairstyle. It really suits you.

Great blog. You know how much I enjoy history. Thank you for the background info. Blonde looks great. Diane home from visiting family in Ontario. Milton

Breathtaking Photograph
I am loving your blog and your photography Roger. Thank you so much Garth for sharing this with me. This Eiffel Tower at sunrise is beyond beautiful.

flowers, banks and films
Hi, Roger and Chris! I really enjoyed this latest blog entry, and as I read, and saw the photos, I couldn't help but be reminded of a few movies. Since I've never been to England, I guess that is my only point of reference. :) The flower market reminded me of My Fair Lady, where Eliza Doolittle sold flowers to passersby. Seeing the photo of the Bank of England immediately brought to mind a scene from Mary Poppins, when George Banks sang to his children about putting their tuppence in the bank! Looks like a fabulous day of browsing markets and sight-seeing!

Cultural experience!!
Delighted to see you enjoyed your time on the North Coast! I can't believe you ended up on a train drinking with Loyalist marchers - you certainly sampled some of the local culture!! Great photos of the beaches and culinary delights at the Beechill. Come back soon!

I'm enjoying your blog. Thanks for taking everyone along... I can be an armchair traveller. The photos are fabulous and ohhh that Banoffee pie looks and sounds so delicious. Noticed you have already hit an author related spot.

What a great start!
Well, it looks like you two are off to a great start with your retirement vacation! (I especially loved the "freedom 55" caption on your photo from the flight. . . . reminded me of something. :) Enjoy the next few months travelling and we will enjoy checking out your blog! All the best, Elaine and Martin

Great holiday
Hi real good to hear from you. Have joined your club. Have a draft for me in the irish pub!! B+D.
