Meknes, Morocco
Waiting for the train to Fes this morning Dear Folks:
We arrived in Barcelona, Spain this eve. BE ADVISED!!!!! A hacker gained access to our e-mail address and password whilst we were in Morocco. If you receive an e-mail from Noahsdad with a Google Document attachment DO NOT try to open it. It will abscond with your e-mail contact list which will be sold to a Spammer. There is no evidence (according to numerous technical Blogs which have addressed this problem since 2012) that opening the attachment will lead to anything more than loss of your contact file however; Who wants that!
If you have attempted to open the attachment your best course of action is to change your e-mail service password to preclude another episode. We apologize to anybody who has been a victim of this scam. It happens but this is the first time that it has happened to Karen and I. Live and learn.
We're back in Barcelona for the first time in 29 years. The city is beautiful and far less expensive than Germany. Just a night here before we head to Moscow and then Saigon. We'll write more when we arrive in SE Asia. Sorry Kathy and John but
Empty Airport
Beautiful International Airport with but a sprinkling of flyers. Spain is hurting bad folks.... a big thank-you for the heads up.
Shout out to Noah. I saw the attempted Skype and I'll buzz you when we get to Saigon and have something to show you. We're good here and love you Spud.
