My wife and I are beginning a Round the World Trip on March 5. We have purchased OneWorld Business Class Explorer Tickets starting in Istanbul and will be travelling for approximately one year.
You are invited to follow our adventures and misadventures at travelswithannandjerry.blogspot.com.
We look forward to sharing our experiences with you.

boy---you don't waste time!!

thanks

How cool!! I am very excited for you, and look forward to reading your posts.
Safe travels!

I look forward to hearing more about your travels, via your blog. We are in the Westport, CT area also, and would love to undertake a similar adventure once the kids have flown the nest. Best of luck to you!

I have your blog bookmarked and will follow. I wonder why you decided to settle in Redondo Beach after the kids left...

Have a wonderful trip. It takes a lot of planning, more than what is reflected in your blog, I think...

Have a nice holiday and enjoy each moment!

BON VOYAGE ON WEDNESDAY

We have been travelling for almost 1 1/2 months and are now in Vietnam, a truly wondeful place to visit. We, again, invite you to folloow our travels at our blog:

cruisinred - where do you live in Westport? We lived there for 30 years, first on Fillow Street and then on Debra Lane. My wife, Ann taught at Kings Highway, Long Lots and Staples.

emd - The South Bay area of Los Angeles is a wonderful place to live. We had friends there and were able to live 1 block from the ocean and enjoy the marvelous weather. Close to Los Angeles but relatively quiet, comfortable and traffic-free.

Jerry, Really enjoying your report. How did you arrange your guide in Hanoi?

Cruisin, Hope you are coming to the CT GTG.

Read your blog..Sounds wonderful..Wish we were there!!

CFW, We arranged a private tour through TNK Travel in HCMC but the tour in Hanoi was arranged by Vietnam OpenTour. Our guide, Hung, was a wonderful young man with excellent English skills. We recommend him highly. By the way, where do you live in Connecticut. We lived in Westport for 30 years.
TracyB, It was good meeting you and your husband in Bangkok.

Jerry, We live in Cheshire, CT -- about 30 minutes north of New Haven. Did you book your tours when you got to Vietnam or did you arrange them ahead of time from the U.S.? Is there a way to contact Hung directly? I've posted your blogspot on favorites so we can follow your travels. What a wonderful experience.

Thank you so much for your wonderful trip report. My husband and I are also planning a round the world trip in april/may 2009. Did you have guides to recommend in

Delhi
Bangkok
China - Beijing, Shanghai
Singapore

What must we experience?

Thanks
