alan wenger So sorry Doug to learn about the sudden passing of your father. Your eulogy is very touching and he sounds like a great man. I wish I could have met him. Take care both of you xxx
This is really a nice tribute to your Father. I've heard from family what a great man he was. So glad to hear that from his son in such a touching way. I'm sorry for your families loss. I can see he will be greatly missed and thought of often.
Hi Doug,
this is a real tribute to your dad. He really led a fantastic and fulfilling life. It was a pleasure to have met him on a couple of occasions. The one that stands out for me is of course at your wedding where I had the honour of hitting the dance floor with him. (and of course I especially loved the Texan accent!) Love to you both and looking forward to seeing Rayma in December. Take care, Alicia, xx
My sympathies Hi Doug,
I just got the link to your blog and read the sad news about your Dad's passing. I'm very sorry for your loss. That was a beautiful tribute you wrote for him, and it got me thinking about my Dad...I could say a lot of the same things about him (particularly the part about him dragging me and my friends around the house by our ankles!). Unfortunately, we're at the age now where our parents and our friends' parents are going to start to leave this world for the next.
I know we've only met once (when I was in HK in early 2007), but I am in touch with Rayma periodically over Facebook. I know you guys are planning to come to NYC early next year, and I hope to see you both then!
Safe travels,
Sean
a dear eulogy Dear Doug and Rayma
I am so sorry to learn of your Dad's passing.
You know that I've not had a chance to know the Wengers, but your wedding was a great testamonial to a very special, loving family.
It's wonderful that you both knew each other so well and appreciated each other. Too often, we lament never getting around to that!
Best love to you both
Mary Pelham
luckies Oh sooo lucky to see U2 at Wembley and up close! Any more concerts coming up? I think you should do one in every city even if it's some random! Concert tour around the world.... Doug, looks like you had a wonderful 40th. The book looks great! Happy Birthday.

As a biologist, I would love to see this place.
When people talk about the great accomplishments of the 20th Century, I always think of the discovery of the active ingrediant in Off.
What a great site! Hi Doug!
Ok, clearly I didn't have a complete understanding of your trip until seeing this AMAZING blog!!! I hope you and Rayma are doing well and staying safe out there!
Comment Slovenia really sounds [and looks] like a great place. You are the only ones I know who have been there, which probably explains why it is so good. Portugal was supposed to have been like that in the begining.
It's nice you have so much flexibility.
Slovenia is Niiiiiiice You write so well I beleive I am there with you, and considering your nationality, you speak/write English extremely well, I have to look some of the words up! not an easy task.
Brilliant summary.. giving me lovely ideas for a "break" away with Angela! Please write on.. although it fills me with the need to experience it first hand.
I is really nice to read about folks coming to Slovenia and enjoying it here! I hope you have a blast - the whole time you are here. :)
Even the weather seems to be changing for the better now.
