Second time, Reno. Was better.

Third time, Acapulco. Was even better, work picked up the tab.

Fourth time, Acapulco. Was full of special memories, the best yet.

Hot Springs Arkansas and Antalya Turkey. Loved both but Turkey was excellent. All the feeling of Greece but at half the cost.

No pics here, am on the road with the laptop...

Todd, never say that there is not going to be another. You might meet the nicest lady riding on a bike today that steals your heart away!

Good friend of mine was talking like that recently. He is 56 and lives in Coronado/SD area. We met another flight crew in a Teterboro/NYC hotel lounge and as usual we were hustling the flight attendent while we watched a movie and had some drinks. Of course she was 32 or so and a bit young for any of us so it was just all in jest.

As we headed to our rooms for the night she sold Bart that she had a lady friend he needed to meet. She lived in LB and would he drive a bit North and meet her half way for a date? He took the bait and had dinner with her 10 days later.

Seems that they hit it off and 2 month later they are engaged to be married. I have seen photos and she is as good looking as he is handsome. Who knows whats in our future. Me, I am happy with my cat after being married to a model and chest cutter. Low maintenance but have to remember to trim the claws...

PS Princeville is wonderful. Last wedding I was in was on the beach North of Princeville at sunset. Beautiful setting and should I ever take the plunge again might be where it happens.

PSS Totally agree about Greece. Used to go to Greece every late October or early November. Friends Father in law had 3 30 foot sailboats on Kos and needed them ferried to Athens. We would sail them to a different island every night, anchor and enjoy the scenery. Simply beautiful and I fell in love with the Med then. Find the time and return.

2 week cruise throught the Baltic Sea. Started in Amsterdam, then:

Sweden
Finland
Norway
Estonia
Poland
Rostock, Germany, and one other port city in Germany
St. Petersburg (formerly Leningrad)

Quite the trip. In Russia, the sun didn't go down until 2:30 a.m. They call it white nights.

Best,

Much to the shock of friends and family we did a very unorthodox honeymoon. We drove to Asheville NC and wondered the Blue Ridge Highway for a week. We did all kinds of sightseeing including some hiking, it was very peaceful and we spent a lot of time alone unwinding from the wedding. We never knew where we would end up each night, some nights we were in very quaint cottages others a Holiday Inn. We had a blast.

Stayed at Secrets Capri.

Loved it. Too bad it's probably gone now. (Thanks Wilma!)

Took a cruise from Vancouver up the coast of Alaska, stayed an extra 2 days in Vancouver at the end. Strongly recommended to anyone.

We were right down the beach at the Aventura Palace (within walking distance of Puerto Aventuras). We went to Playa del Carmen one night but only briefly.

Very relaxing area of Mexico since it's a decent ways from Cancun.

Got married on the back of a train (White Pass Railroad) on our way to the Loughton Glacier just north of Skagway, Alaska. The brakeman was one of our witnesses.

The following morning we hiked the Chilkoot trail from Alaska over the pass into Canada. 35 miles over rough terrain carrying 60lb packs. What a honeymoon!!!
