Vicariously enjoying your adventures (and misadventures) as well as the photos. I do have one question, though, Margaret: did Barry have anything to do with the conception of Tessa and/or Connor...they look like Margaret-clones to me! Keep blogging!

Hey, 'sup Tessa! I hope you come back soon. School will be boring without you. I hope you have fun on your trip. I miss you so much. You were such a good friend!!

Hey Sup Everyone!! Just Letting You Know That I SAW CONNOR IN LONDON ON JULY 14th Hola, Cam Bouchie

Hey guys, How are you doing? I read your story about Holland. It is fun to read. Take care and have fun. Love, Marja

Looks great! Awesome sites! Take care and remember you still have 5 more months!

Hey, looks like you guys are having loads of fun. looks wonderful in all those places, and it hasn't even been a month!!! Just keep taking all these awesome pics for everyone to see...they look awesome. I just got back from my vacation...not nearly as long or incredible as yours..haha. Enjoy the rest of your vacation (which is a long time) and you will hear from me again sometime. Brenna (and the rest of my family)

I am really enjoying your photos and blogs. Good for you for staying in hostels; I'm sure you're meeting interesting characters. I noticed a lot of beer drinking; should we be concerned? I was pleased to see you drinking one of my favorites beers: Leffe Dark in Brugge. I'm sure we were sitting in the same square in 2005 drinking the same beer and different beers! Belgium is certainly the place for people who enjoy a good brew! Take care! Hilaria

Nice pictures of Holland. I see you guys already left to Germany. Kerym was very sad when you left. He really cried and felt bad the next day. His mind is set that he is going to visit you in Canada. Who knows! We enjoyed having you here very, very much. Roshdy and the children arrived safely in Egypt yesterday, so I am home alone. Good luck and fun on your travels.

Love, Marja.

Hey Mrs. Lewis, So happy to hear you're doing the whole y'know world thing. Boy, aren't you proud of my english now... Anyway, I'll just be sitting here until I get that email that says you have made it to my lovely Polska. Be good, see lots, and love it all. Adios. Oh, and we'll have to compare photos when you get back.

Margaret, I'm so jealous! Your pictures look awesome and it sounds like you and your family are having a blast. Enjoy exploring the wonders of our world and keep in touch

Hey, you guys! E-mailing Tessa and hearing where you guys have been every day feels like I'm traveling the world with you. I MISS YOU GUYS SO MUCH! I hope you guys have fun!!! I hope the rest of your vacation is GREAT!!!!!

Hi Guys, I envy you the sights but not the walking. Looks like you are having a good time, but beware of pickpockets. Anyway keep up the blogs and pics, and thanks for the captions, it makes it more interesting. Happy exploring. Love
