Great Adventures Your trip continues to amaze with all you pack in to your days. You've learnt so much history and seen so many amazing places. The food sounds like it may be a highlight. I do enjoy reading about your adventures.
Yowza! Amazing to hear all the territory you have seen. Such horrible wars, and yet life goes on (for the living).
Have a frosty Czech beer for me!
I will be in Regina next Sunday, October 1st. If you’re home by then, will check in with you.
Enjoy Prague!
The Budapest parliament buildings lit up at night are so beautiful. Tiles on St Matthias roof also. Now we have shared memories...albeit we saw the same things at different times. Amazing to think of the history of that city with so much strife over the years when looking at those lovely sights. Glad your trip has been a success and know what you mean when you say time has flown. Will be wonderful to have the memories. Looking forward to your in-person report.
Happy Experiences in Prague Hello. I hope that you and Dorina will have a wonderful stay in Prague . Fall has been glorious in Regina today. You haven’t mentioned the weather where you are,so, I trust it has been good.
Hi A breath of fresh air to hear about current people after the hard times.
Also the river cruise sounds inviting!
All is well in SK. Our NDP MLA canvassed here today. He suggests the provincial election may be within six months. (Oh! Remember those days?)
Love to hear about your days,
hi to Dorina
Interesting observations Greetings. I was interested in your comments about the Serbs and the Russian leanings. I trust your impressions. It is interesting to read your comparisons to your earlier visit. Keep on enjoying your sister’s company; the lovely food and life on a river.
Dining on the River Hello. So glad you are enjoying the riverboat experience. The musical entertainment sounds as though it is to your taste. Speaking of taste, your food choices sound lovely too.
Glad you went for a drive in the country I was wondering if you would see much of the land so thanks for sharing the Bulgarian tour.
I believe the Bulgarians were traders and brokers of trade during the Viking empire (800 - 1100 or so). Please take note of anything you might come across for me? So interesting, Pam.
Wonderful How wonderful to hear of your travels: the tastes, the feelings, the colour. Thanks for sharing.
Today is one of those late-summer, calm and sunny prairie days. I was outside starting to think about bringing the house plants in from their summer vacation in the yard. The birds were chirping. Yes, some of them were magpies, and the Friday sounds included a lawnmower or two, and the sun sets early. But holy moly, it is a beautiful world.
The email is working now! Thanks for the great description of your travel adventure so far. It makes me want to take a boat trip one day too. And Bucharest sounds over the top.
No frost here yet but 20 degree swings some days. And it's dry.

A Great Start I’m glad to hear your adventure is off to a good start and that you arrived safely after a long journey. Bucharest sounds lovely and some of the food sounds good. I vote no skin on my fish. Enjoy!
Bucharest day 1 & 2 Pam I enjoyed your review of our fist couple of days. I think what I have enjoyed the most is walking miles down the lovely street called Victory and seeing hundreds of families with young ones and beautiful young people. Living in a senior community we rarely see this. The parks are lovely and the food great but huge portions, we did stop in to two churches and watched a little girl make a first communion. The family had cakes and lots of baking to celebrate the occasion after.
Bon voyage! Wonderful to read your blog again. I’ve been thinking of you and Dorina; was getting ready to call to be reminded when your trip is, and then this email arrived! I’m “a day late and a dollar short”!
How wonderful to have this time together; enjoy those hydrating beers. All the best for the rest of your journey.
(Also pleased to hear your flights went well!)
Nice trip Like to read your journey so much, as if I was walking on the road you were walking on, seeing the stuff you are seeing. Made me feel I have been there too, but at the mean time, made me have the desire to go there myself. Hope you had a nice trip home!
That Cold Wind Hi,
Your experience with the wind in Edinburgh coming off the North Sea, is a familiar one for us. It is still a very interesting place to visit. Glad you had a good time there. You have certainly covered a fair bit of ground. Enjoy your remaining days in Dublin and have a safe journey home on Tuesday.
I am off on another travel venture. This retirement thing is quite wonderful ,I recommend it to you all. Keep me posted on your activities.... full info
