Hi Sue,

Looks like you had a grand time with your daughters. Family outings really are the best.

Tomorrow we are off to another doll show. This time we're going to Chicago and I hope I will be able to visit the Museum of Science and Industry. They have a U-boat on display from WWII which I hope to visit. I was on this U-boat in 1954 when it stopped in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on its' way to the museum. Surprisingly even though I was only 7 I remember this event quite clearly.

We celebrated Mothers Day here yesterday. As I remember you celebrate one week later in the UK. So in case I don't get to a computer hope you have a happy day.

Best wishes,

Mark

Hi Sue, You may or not remember that nearly three years ago we sent you a load of questions about fitting out a liveaboard boat which you so kind to take the time and answer. We have also got so much more information from your blog over the last few years as we have followed your travels. So as you were in our neck of the woods we thought we show our thanks and drop you off a nice bottle of wine.You can catch up with our progress at http://nbperuvianskies.blogspot.com although we are a little guilty of not finding time to update it as often as we should as you know how it is back here in the "RATRACE" but thats not forever!!! . Many Thanks Dick & Netty

Happy birthday to your dd. My dd, also Jenny, and I walked across the glass when we went up there, how exciting to have a party up there!! We can see the tower from my mother-in law's house about 15 miles away!!

Mark, Dick and Netty and Jane,

Mark, Mothers day in the UK was 2nd March this year, quite early I think because Easter was earlier.

You sure do travel the country with your dolls, and I hope you enjoy the science museum. We have one in London which I have visited.. it was hard to pull myself away from it to be honest.

Anyway have a great time

Dick and Netty..

Hey, well many thanks to you both. Yes I remember now, and have visited your blog, in fact I have it in my favorites. I will put it on my blogger friends page too shortly.

I was really sorry to have missed you both.. hopefully you will be in the same area as us in the near future to be able to come back again.

Won't be long now 'till you are cruising, bet you can't wait!

Jane,

Yes great time, and I am not good with heights, but was brave enough.. ha mind you I had had a couple of b&c's beforehand!
