Nice Catch
Bet those Kings put up a great fight. They can get pretty big.......... I heard up to 60 lbs. A lot of fun on light tackle. I would like to do some tarpon fishin. Those guys go airborne alot during the fight and can also get pretty big.....150 to 200 lbs. Can't even believe a fish that big could jump. Sounds like a good trip.

Fishing
Thanks, Sprague. I got your message about the fishing on Islamorada, but we had already booked this one by then. I've seen some shows about Tarpon fishing and it looks like a blast. Maybe next time.

Looks Like Fun
It was a lot of fun. No flips or rolls, just straight & level, but a lot of cool views of the Keys. It was hard to get good photos, though, because of the struts and wings.

Looks like fun
Looks like you are both having a fantastic time! No way I could do that! Did he do any flips with you?

Very cool, I also like Key West. If you like to fish, Warren Clark, Ron Baker and have used a Tarpon fishing guide 3-4 times out of Bud & Marys in Islamorada. A 1/2 day trip for two is about $400. Small boat in close.

Just my luck
Sure rub it in. Airfares are so high! 600 plus, more like 700. So inviting, looks beautiful. Wish I was there!

It is always great to see how the snow is doing in "god's Country"! Duluth, usually, has nothing like it. S. Mary Odile Cahoon

Dinner
Dan, how observant you are! I do wonder why you notice the men equally as much as the women. Hmmmm.

Dinner
Terrific food and atmosphere ! I'd give it a 9 for circus. I noticed so many young German males wear scarves, even though temperatures hover in the 60s. At least they don't wear knit hats as well . They also feature a lot of over the shoulder ''man-bags''' , not that there is anything wrong with that. On the flip side, I have no complaints about the females featuring high boots over their fitted jeans , Im just saying.

Switzerland
This was such an enjoyable boat ride down the ''real'' Lake Geneva, with the Alps backdrop. Bob was inspired to pen many tunes for his upcoming CD release. The French speaking of the locals was a nice change of pace.

sightseeing
All this culture + history, very impressive. We are sure son , Danny III , would have really enjoyed tour of Palace + all the statues etc.. He is a history teacher + this brought the Austrian Empire to life. With all this walking in shorts, insomnia is never a problem. When we turn in at night, I'd just put a ''friendly'' soccer match on + always crash before that final nil -nil score determined. Speaking of hotels, why are all the European shower doors only 1/2 the bathtub length , and why are the electrical outlets different from ours or even our adaptors, and why do I sound like Andy Rooney ? Oh well, at least I now have enough sample shampoos, conditioners + lotions to last the next decade.

Stage show
Notice the audience at the Marionette show all have their backs to the stage. Apparently I am not alone in my puppet phobia. Everywhere you looked in Vienna was a show or painting or statue . At one point I think I saw Bob pulling Jan's strings !

Beer Tent
We had a blast in the tent ! The whole crowd singing together with the band was so inspiring that Bob + I stood on our chairs to singalong, much to the chagrin of our spouses.

Luge
'' Look, it's Jan at a complete stop in middle of luge run again !'' What a blast, even more exciting than driving on the Autobahn I'm guessing [since I wasn't allowed to actually drive our rental vehicle].

Alps
What a view , so warm outside yet glacier topped mountains! Great view from the top,and being from the flatlands of the Midwest makes the view even more special. The Schnapps at noon put more grey hair on my chest. Glass hotel was interesting, with a little modern architecture thrown into old mix. Should people in glass hotels not throw stones as well?

Fest
This was a tremendous day!! The addition of Isa, Jens and Marco to our group heightened the fun. Loved the beer, the appetizer tray was awesome!! Our server completed the perfect scenario, never spilling a drop in such tight quarters. Authentic outfits were so cool. Could have done another 3 hour second shift there! Kudos to Bob for his persistence in securing the opening day reservation at the ''celebrity'' tent.

Munich Tour
