Okay...that's enough...you guys are having too much fun without me and I'm really sick of it! You better get on the next flight home if you know what's good for ya!

Okay...fine...stay then...see if I care.

All kidding aside, looks like fun! I LOVE the ancient pots! How cool are they?! Keep safe!

ciao,

Hello from Utah! We are enjoying our second summer among such fantastic scenery! Glad to catch up with your recent photos & blog!

Will be home Oct 19/07....Keep safe & have fun

Sounds like you guys are on a marathon! Lots of adventure packed into each day. Jordon sounds amazing. Maybe one day we'll get there. Smokey had some canine company today. Bandit spent the day with her while Maurice and Brian attended a wedding. It's the first day Smokey's food bowl has been empty. HMMMM I wonder why??? All is well here.

Hello, glad to hear all is going well?! What an adventure. I can't wait to hear about Petra - I watched a documentary on it once and it was fascinating. Michael ended up with a cold this past week and decided to share it with me - isn't love grand! Needless to say we are staying home this Thanksgiving weekend and eating chicken soup and watching the rain fill up our ponds.

We hope you are both in good health and aren't too tired.

Love, Gail & Michael XOXO

Hi you two, the pictures are great. Looks as though you are having a great time,everyone is good here. Harvey dropped by with Esk tickets,weather is cold but not bad when we are in the hot tub that we rented. Smokie is doing fine,very friendly now, until you get back. Oilers won their home opener. Keep having a great time, talk again

Hi Leanne and Maria,

Wow, you are both doing really well at sending updates and pictures...we're impressed! Sounds like you're having a good time so far, although all that travel sounds a bit tiring! We had a tiring weekend - organizing the house! Doesn't that sound exciting?

Leanne, you'll be excited to know that yesterday Jessica counted to 7 all by herself! And, she picked up the phone yesterday and was talking into it. When I asked her who it was she said, "not grandma...auntie!" That should make your day, right??

Take Care,

Kathy, Nigel, and Jessica XOXO

Hey you Two.

Happy Thanksgiving to you both but a specail one to Maria as it has bee a few years since I have missed you on thanksgiving.

Take care you both,

B

Hey Maria ... Brian and I really enjoyed the photos, particularly, 'balloons over the ruins'!

And Bandi enjoyed the one of you, Leanne and the two good-looking guys, but you know Bandi...she's boy crazy!

Travel hard, have fun!

from Brian (and Bandi) and M

Enjoyed your Aswan/ Luxor photos & blog! Keep the fantastic photos coming...can't wait to see all of them when you arrive back & to hear the stories attached! How was 2nd class trip back to Cairo? mmmh

We are leaving tomorrow (Oct 2) for Fred & Donna's & then on to UTAH! Hope to be able to access your blog from St George.

Thanks Megan...great descriptive journal! Keep safe...

Hey Girls,

Glad to see you are enjoying the sights - so much to see. We are loving the photos and the stories. What a travel schedule - we still need our 5 star resorts! Don't think we would survive the schedule you two are on. Enjoy the sun.

Be safe. All our love,

Gail & Michael XOXO

Hi Leanne and Maria,

Enjoying all the info and photos you have been sending. The donkey ride to the Valley of the Kings is too funny. When I was there the same thing happened to us. Donkey farts and caca all the way there. We refused to ride back on the donkeys and took a bus instead. Isn't Cairo something? What chaos!

Smokey is doing well but misses you of course, Maria. All is well here.

Hey Leanne,

Have you seen a dust storm yet!! did you gal's try some local cusine? I want to see a photo of you on a camel, it's a blast..

have fun
