Sounds exciting! It was in a 28' sailing boat. I read that as 28" at first. Gave me a bit of a surprise and boat as boot? How are things in Australia? :-) :-) Freezing. -- Tim C. |

If only it had British weather, it would be perfect! I hate the Greek sun, it is brighter than any other sun I've experienced. It must be all the light colored rock at the sites I visit, reflecting the sunshine. If Scotland had Greek weather it would be perfect too. Hey what is wrong with Scotland weather? The only time I think I'd dislike is midge-hatching season. Late January isn't so great, either. But the rest of the time, I love it. |

(I've concluded that the IQ score of the average Arizonan hovers around 75 - "moron" - or below.) Evelyn, for heaven's sake, give it up. You are one of the biggest posters about politics (especially during President Bush's years) and you demonize everything American! Arizona is a beautiful state and we have friends who live in different parts of that state who never complain as you do. Granted you do have more than your share of illegal immigrants as we do here in Texas, but you find NOTHING nice to say about anything. For seven years you have sat in your adult complex (whatever it is) and you consistently color our country and its people with one unfavorable brush. You seem to consider yourself so above everyone else. Many Americans do travel and DO realize there is a "rest of the world" because we travel in it. I have many friends who travel...some are even handicapped and they use motorized scooters and make the best of their situation. I am fortunate that as a senior citizen, I am physically able and do travel outside of the USA at least four times a year, as do many other of my friends. Just a week ago, 55 of us spent 10 days in the Caribbean. My husband and I will be in Barcelona and Lisbon this April. So please stop painting all Americans as being " less intelligent"....Tell us about the traveling that you have been doing lately instead of sitting in judgement. Your posts are always negative which indicates you must not be a very happy person. |

You ask ME for "chapter and verse" whenever I post something as fact - how about YOU putting your money where your mouth is? (I'd be very interested to see all my "political" posts - unless you count those objecting to American politics taking over a newsgroup dealing with European travel.) and you demonize everything American! Not "EVERYTHING" American - just what DESERVES it! (Most people who have traveled to other countries realize that America is no longer the shining beacon to the rest of world that it once was, and that other cultures have much to offer, if we were wise enough to follow their examples.) |

I would have to note though that sometimes I think the Republicans in our state legislature do, indeed, have IQs around 75., but I prefer to keep politics out of travel groups so I won't. |
