I've loved the whole trip! Hi "Girls",
I've enjoyed every minute of your trip and I have learned so much about all the places you have visited. What an experience you've had! Can't wait to hear even more about it in person. Welcome home - there must be two guys who are very happy to see you. Love, Lois
you make me smile Hi Lindsay and Mary Ellen I am addressing this to you both as I feel like I know Mary Ellen intimately having gone around the world with you. You both make me smile every time I read Your e-mails. I rush home at the end of the day just to see what you have written. All I can say is thank you for allowing me to share in this wonderful experience. Continue to Enjoy Enjoy Enjoy. Above all else be safe Molly
Love those K.M. Moments!! Hi Guys,
What a trip! M.E you should now be quite fine with Buster after spending time with Crocs, Elephants and Lions. Lindsay must be in seventh heaven.
Now you are off to North Africa....
My most vivid memory of Luxor (apart from the archaeological one) is how I had to pay "Baksheesh" for each strip of toilet paper. So....don't eat too much!!!! Don't we all wish we could be with you both? You guys are great! Love and Hugs...Sherry
thx for all the memories hey guys...
have thoroughly enjoyed the last few blogs. it's fun to hear about new places, and nostalgic to re-live through your eyes those locations we have visited in our past. your african experience was really what travelling is all about. appreciating when you DO arrive on time and all goes accord'g to schedule. but you two were real troopers. enjoy it all. thinking of you all the time.

Nov. 19, 2007 - Lila Wow! Your travelogues are marvellous and don't you both look great! You will have to write a book when you come home. In the meantime, enjoy, be well, travel safely.

Thank you for including me in your blog. I enjoy reading each update. My best friend Gus moved to Hong Kong 4 1/2 years ago and I have never seen pictures until yours. Last year he took a bike tour in Vietnam and said it was an amazing trip loving the children the most. Your pictures bring such life into what you write and joy knowing that you are having a most wonderful time. Did you get a massage? Looking forward to more. Josie
If you are doing this in 28 days, imagine what you could be doing with 80 days around the world. Just received the blog today and I wish I were there too! Your descriptions and photos are wonderful. Keep sharing and keep having a great time. xox
I was just there and you do it better! The orchids in the flower market are the best! We'll compare flower pics! Thank you for letting me in on your travels! I'm so excited for you and happy, happy, happy that you are sharing your experience in this way.
Blog on!!
Love,
Marsha
What a trip! Thanks for including me in the blog, Lindsay. I just read all the entries. It sounds like you're both having a fabulous time on this trip of a lifetime. It's a pleasure to be sharing it with you while you're there. I loved the Japanese "drag" photos! Keep the blog entries and photos coming! Love, EG
Ah-So Ha!
Great commentary and pics!
If possible, even sadder than 3.5MM HK living in poverty is that if the world was a village of 100 (remember the 'miniature earth' video?), 75 live without a roof over their head (green or otherwise) or a bed to sleep in. We are soooo lucky (um... i mean we are sooo '99'.)
Am going to check if Stanley market is a registered seller on ebay now -:)
Hope you both are lovin your trip as much as i am !!
All I can say is WOW. You two are so lucky and I know you are having the time of your lives. The pictures say it all. I am jealous, but have fun. Donna
we're on our way to the airport and Melbourne. We feel like we're right there with you-you are both amazing bloggers. Glad you're having such a ball- very inspiring! You rock ladies!
xoxox
You are really setting a bar way up there! Hi Ladies:
I am having such a ball watching you have such a ball! I can hear you giggling even as I ready your incredibly eloquent descriptions - National Geographic could not do a more enticing job than you of whetting one's appetite to travel. So, I think I will - in about five days - and will try to keep abreast of your travels while we do our own "down under." But really, getting your hair done while travelling? Really - now nails, that's another matter - gotta keep those digits looking perfect. Well, you both look fabulous dahling - keep up the great work of taking us with you on your trip. Lots of love - Ruthie
WOW!!!! WOW! Carol just showed us your blog and can't believe you travelled to the far northwest of Canada then onto Siberia (if only for a stop over and you didn't leave the plane) then onto the balmy temps of Japan. We found what you posted is informative and most amusing. Always good to have a sense of humour.
Sure must be culture shock, not to mention sleep deprivation for the two of you.
Will be following your adventures. HAVE A BLAST! Perhaps there's a travel book in the offing following "MaryEllen and Lindsay's Most Incredible Adventures". (Who do you want to play the two of you in the movie?)
