Carol is swimming laps in the hotel's pool, which is longer in length than the pool we use regularly in our home town of Eugene, Oregon. (The balcony where we ate our meals is visible in the background.)
In an attempt to reach a broader base of family and friends who might be interested in our journeys, we decided to use the Internet. It seemed more logical to inform folks that they could choose to read about our adventures by going online, instead of e-mailing numerous people with embedded images. It was presumptuous to think the correspondents we chose would be captivated by our musings. Warning ... this blog will have many illustrations! (TO ENLARGE PHOTOS, CLICK ON THEM!)
