Traveling Friends

I'm back from a pleasant trip and will post a few more photos when I get them organized.
I have special friends who travel to very exotic places in the world ~ Africa on Safari, the Antarctic on board Russian ice breakers, tiny Easter Island and Tahiti in the wide Pacific Ocean, and so many other places few of us ever visit.
My dear Washington State friend Patti, and her dh, leave next weekend on another of their romantic trips, this time to Romania and Bulgaria. Names such as Bucharest and Sofia are familiar, but journeying into Transylvania to actually trek to Vlad Tepes - Dracula's castle - how thrilling that will be!

My 'bon voyage' card made with love and carrying best wishes to my dear friends as they fly away to experience and enjoy the sights and sounds of these exciting countries.

Have a fabulous vacation ~ I will be waiting to hear all about it.

  5. Good to be home again? There is nothing wrong with traveling around you too. Jos and I love spending time right here in Holland. There is more beauty around us than we often realize. We always seem to want to travel far for it and miss it on our own doorsteps. Now I think Romania and Bulgaria might be beautiful but not too sure about a visit to Dracula. He is probably a real pain in the neck during vacation. LOL!

    I am really looking forward to your photos soon and will be answering your email now that you are back. If you don't get it, please let me know. I am having trouble sending emails to certain servers. I will try to send one tonight or tomorrow my friend.

    Hugs ~
    Heidi

  6. Hi Mary
    Welcome back. I missed you! It sounds like you had a good time Whenever I visit important historic sites I always try to imagine what it was like at the time. Little did those men at Gettysburg know that they would be forever in our history books. The tags you made for your friends are wonderfully creative.
    Hugs Rhondi
