Oh Gayle!!!! I loved the pictures!! What a wonderful vacation you had!!! To think that you were actually there and saw all of that......WOW!!!

It always amazes me to see the old buildings because here in Kansas we have nothing like that.......we go back a little more than 150 years and even those are just little homestead buildings. The really old buildings are so wonderfully built!! Thank you so much for sharing!!!

What great pictures!! I'm so glad you got to go and have so much fun. Are you over jet lag yet?

[gja1000]

No, I'm still pretty jet lagged. In the afternoon and early evening I just want to go to sleep and it's a fight not to. I think it's a tiny bit better today though. How do you manage jet lag?

Gayle your photos are lovely, i am so glad you had a nice holiday, i was thinking about you, wondering what you were doing, and where you were.

I had to laugh about your comment on, mushy peas, i love them, but it wouldnt do for us all to like same things.

[gja1000]

Hi Diane! I love peas, but I like them in little round balls better! Lol!

[Janet]

Thought I'd pop in and good thing I did....PICTURES! So glad you enjoyed your trip....the pictures are just beautiful! Are you going to add them to an album on Facbook?


Sorry I haven't been here much....other stuff going on, I guess. Will try to do better.

Glad you're home safe and sound Gayle.
