bananas!!!!
just read the comment by thelma on the price of bananas in perth...yikes!!! here in canada we pay the same as the san fran bananas but in canadian dollars. sometimes it's only 30 cents a pound. we are nowhere near a banana belt. why is perth so expensive for fruit that can be grown in australia? wait till you get to mexico. fruit there is almost a giveaway.

time constraints?
so with all that exercise and sightseeing when do you get time to write such detailed accounts? i would be worn out and just settle in with a good bottle of california red. we spent some time at the inn on union square.. a great little hotel on the square. s.f. is a truly lovely city.will you get to travel a little outside of it, say to the napa valley for the wine? when you get to mexico, if you are planning to see san miguel de allende or guadalajara, let me know as i have some contacts for you. one is even an aussie. buon viaje.. jim

New Phone
Hi Larni, we bought a new phone today. It's been an effort finding someone who sold triband phones that were not locked to a provider so we have the same nummber. We will charge it overnight and it will be ok for tomorrow. However prefer if you email your itinerary as we'll then have a record of it on the computer. (and we don't incur expensive global roaming costs!) See you in Essex! Judy

San Fran!
Hey there How sad about the bottle of scotch. Love the look of the apartment. Im very excited that you found stuff in the DWS and I can see you did the top of Macy's visit! It looks cold in San Fran. Anyway I'll keep reading this, let me know if you get a new phone number. We are nearly settled on an itinerary so I'll send it through when we have it. L :-) x

Worn Out
Hi Judy and Rags I am worn out and hungry from reading your adventures :-) You really are making the most of each minute and deserving of the many tasty pleasures you are finding on your travels. Couldn't see any pics on your last post - ops, they have arrived. Keep on keeping on. Di

You're quick
I only just got the blog finished. Yes, it is cold here. I think it was Mark Twain that said "The coldest winter I ever knew had was summer in San Francisco" About 18degrees c. Have a great trip J

San Francisco
Love the pics. and envy you the bananas. Saw them in the shop the other day over here for $9.95 per kilo, so they're still going up in price. One of the first things I noticed in your pics was that you are wearing warm clothes.Is it cold over there ? I Leave for the South West tomorrow as planned. Will try and keep up with your blog while away.Have added to my blog and hope to be able to keep it going from an Internet Cafe. Stay well and continue to enjoy yourselves ,love Mum. Ps: Why can't we read the comments ??

Waikiki
Food seems to figure greatly in your blogs!! I love the photos, and Waikiki sounds very interesting. There must be a lot of tourists there !! Besides you, ofcourse. I envy you your time in SanFrancisco, I can remember seeing part of the Golden Gate Bridge as the plane landed when I was en-route to Los Angeles and thought how much I would like to have travelled over it. So enjoy it for me too ! Love Mum

Bon Voyage Weggsies
Hey Weggsies! I am trying to teach Clarkie how to travel light (OMG) and we just survived "pack-dragging" (our special version of back-packing) Europe and India for 4 weeks. We could still learn a lot from u guys. V impressive minimalism. So where is the 'puter? I'M told they r a necessary item. How else do u keep the airport security guys entertained?? Best wishes for your trip. Looking forward to seeing where u go and what u do. Travel safe Blossoms. Luv J XX

Wishing You a Great Trip
Well, long time no hear Rags, Judy. I can't believe you are going before the ECAWA conference this year. I know they hold special memories for you both ;-) I look forward to reading of your adventures as you go. I'm sure you'll have some great stories to tell. Just remember, if some woman offers to drive you both down a very steep hill while talking out loud to her late husband, politely decline. Warm regards Marcos von Windbreak. Go the Bike Boyz.
