lmao!   That's just wrong!

And at first I was pissed!   I was like:  Oh no he didn't come to my state and not tell me! 

I guess Chris Christie is sitting on your bridge, huh?

How are you doing Tru?

I am doing pretty well, this getting older is wearing on me. This winter is wearing on me. More cold weather on its way today.

Naw I didn't say much about going to Australia and have not felt the need since I got back. Had a good adventure and I very much enjoyed meeting Sue. My family back in the US wanted me to get an app on my ipad so they could see where I was. It was about all I could do to tell them to kiss my ass. Sometimes I feel like participating in the world and sometimes the world makes me very paranoid. I get back and one of my friends was like "when are you going to put up your Australia pictures?" and I told her I wasn't. She couldn't believe it. I told her they were my pictures and I would do what I wanted with them and I didn't feel like sharing them with the world.

Moral of the story is: if your going to travel, do it when you are young and still have a sense of wonder. When you get old and have a lot of baggage it is not the same.

We are very different.
I will be 70 in less than 2 months time. I am looking forward to my 6 weeks trip to the USA starting June 2. I worry I annoy my friends as  I send a weekly email with about 6 to 8 of the best pictures then put them up on my blog and on here. None of them have complained yet.
I admit I use to travel in Europe or USA for 8 weeks but have found that a bit long to be away. I get a bit sick of packing my bag every day or 2. This year I have booked apartments in New York, Washington and Seattle to stay 3 to 5 days in each.
I am just making first email contacts today for a tour from Paris to the Australian war memorial on Anzac day 2015. I plan to spend about 2 weeks in an apartment in Paris where I have stayed before.

I think it is wonderful, maybe I will mellow out and be more like you.

Yeah, I'm the kind of traveller, that likes to put it all out there, pictures, stories, everything....

Its my way of sharing it with friends and bringing them to the places I am visiting, in the hope that they will get some enjoyment out of my travels as well.

But, nothing can feel like actually being in a different country, unless you are there.....and nothing Tru, will ever let me forget the absolutely wonderful time I spent with you while you were here in Australia....xx

I tend to like to share my pics as well, but I understand the desire to keep it to yourself at times too.

[Kelda]

Like others I'm a sharer but nothing wrong with wanting to keep pics etc private.. I'm just nosy!
