Kane's Guestbook

Sounds like you enjoyed Paris!
I see that you've discovered that cost and quality of a meal over there varies significantly! Please tell me you had some Canard Confit. So good. Also, did you guys stand in that super long line for tickets at Versailles? If so, thats a shame because if you go to the North?(right side of the whole front plaza) building you can get "private tour" tickets for about 2Euros more. No lineups, an hour in private areas the majority of people don't see, a very informative guide (the curator was my guide), and then access to everything else a reg ticket buys you! Anyways, safe travels and I look forward to hearing about them and from you guys! Have fun!

Oh my!
I actually giggled out loud quite a lot during this entry. I went to that gorge! I didn't even realize it was that same one until I saw pictures. I really love the picture of my parents stuffing their faces...thank you. I think that one will go on facebook as my mother's profile picture someday. It sounds like you are all having an amazing time! Please, enjoy an Efes for me!

fun
you are having entirely toooooo much fun. Continue. Lorraine

Lost Luggage
Hey there, Uncle Kane! Sounds all very typical to me. Lost luggage. *sigh*. Well at least you didn't have to wait around forever to discover that your luggage was missing. Plus, you might have taken that as an excuse to go shopping!!!! Although, I hear the markets are mostly closed due to the end of Ramadan. Well, I hope you are all having a wonderful time! I can't wait to hear more about your trip...and see pictures!!! Take care!!! -Jacquelyn

No bull in Istanbul?
Thanks for the update on the luggage! Okay....thanks for including me in your Istanbul adventures. Hope you eventually (pre-mediterranean departure) get your luggage. Looking forward to finding out how this latest trip unfolds. Cheers Kane. Sample a brew or two for me.

wings and beer
thanks for the invitation. See you in November.....and next time I am going to 20 wings. Cheers. Nice photos Kane. Keep up the blogging. Will you blog your resignation to all of the world? I hope so. Must go....my Itouch is running out of battery!!!!!!!!!

you guys rock
can't believe how wonderful everything looks. I can almost taste the wine from here. (Or beer ....) love the travel blog. Must look into that next vacation although I don't think I could be anywhere close to as poetic as Kane have a great time! Deb

just to let you know, I named mine Delores

Ours is called LOLA, after her regular bill of fare (LOngitude, LAtitude), but MAGGIE works too (Miracle Aid for Geographic Guidance in Europe?). As regards Pedestrian Mode - been there, done that :-). Another one to check is "Shortest Route vs Fastest Route", and keep an eye on "Avoidances" (Toll roads, etc). Voice of experience... Sounds like you're having fun, and we're enjoying the trip vicariously. Keep 'em coming! /Hans

Back in ol' Blighty
Wow! Am I jealous or what... I can hardly wait for you guys to get back , so I can hear and see where you went. Lucky dogs. Nants

looks beautiful
Your pics are great, as is the writing, (as usual). I am glad you finally got a chance to post something, I was starting to get a bit worried. Talked with Jess last night, and she is doing great. Looking forward to your next post. Have fun.
