In my office in Hawaii doing some last minute paper work before we leave for France. Our home for the next six weeks!

64driver,

Thank you.

Sitting in my "study/computer room", in Anacortes, Washington, peeking over the top of my screen, looking out the window at the Guemes Channel, and the San Juan Islands.

Just got back from visiting Son, south of Veracruz, Mexico, where he is building a boat near the beach. I should be unpacking, and looking at my credit card records to see how much I spent.

Why am I "wasting" time surfing Fodor's?

I am on the couch in my front room under a blanket in Duluth Minnesota. I just got back from Sanibel island Florida from a week of 85 degrees to Duluths 45 degrees.
Now I am planning our trip to Germany for this fall.

Hi lola. Cool post idea. Actually, I'm also in a house about 35 minutes north of NYC staring at some sliding glass doors.

It's a small world, huh?

6:51 pm japan. on the top floor of an apartment working in a study table by the sliding glassdoors to a tiny balcony overlooking residential buildings in chiba prefecture. i just moved in the apt. about three weeks ago and i should be working on some boxes lying around. im reading related posts to plan for a three-week tour of france, italy, switzerland next month (!)

this is my very first post here.

blessings!

Well, welcome aboard, Heiwa2007!

Now, what I am going to do this instant is go to Google to see where Chiba prefecture is.

domo arigato, nukesafe. chiba is where narita airport is. but im only about 30 mins from tokyo. btw, i was in washington june last year and i was smitten with its beauty.

how do you start a new thread here? i wanted to ask what the temperature in the swiss alps is around third week of june. i get cold easily and i hope i dont have to bring heavy warm clothes.

hey, this is interesting.

I'm in my bare living room, with a desk chair and a folding table. I'm moving out in a few days and wanted to have everything done well ahead of time. I leave for the UK and Ireland on the 11th and didn't want to be packing an apartment and suitcase at the same time.

I'm in Waterloo Iowa right now, and shortly moving to Shueyville Iowa. This is actually a beautiful area of the country... gently rolling hills, fields of waving corn during the summer. From the air you can truly fall in love with the fields, with their little clusters of farm houses gathered close together.

American Airlines Flagship Lounge, Heathrow airport. Ready to board my 11th flight in 12 days, only one more after this and I'm home. Home is good.

I'm sitting in my big bed in Los Gatos Californina, in my jammies, sipping my latte, looking out the windows, and researching our up-coming trip to Italy on my laptop. (We leave on Sunday). The views out my windows are of trees, mountains, and blue sky. It is a gorgeous day, and I can hear the birds singing. I love my "office"----it's very comfy!!! Love, love, love that I can do all my research without even getting dressed!

Heiwa2007,

It is easy to start a new thread here. Simply chose the forum you would like to post in, i.e., you are interested in the Alps, so you would get into the "Europe" Forum. Then click "Post a new message". Then click on "General Interest". Write a title for your question that includes the country, city, or region that you want answers about. Write your message and post.

If you want to follow all the threads upon which you have posted, just click on your screen name at the upper right of the page, and all of those posts will appear.

Enjoy Japan, and the Alps!

thanks, i tried it but it doesnt work. i dont see the 'post a new message tab'. you know, i see general interest tab on top but after that it's cut. i only have half the search button. i tried reducing the font size and still no change.

I am enjoying lunchbreak in my office in Düsseldorf and am looking at one of the bridges across the Rhein on this wonderful spring day.

Heiwa,

I guess we are not communicating. What I meant was to post a new message, click the "Post a New Message" link at the upper left hand portion of your screen, just over the "Change Forums box. You should be on the Europe Forum, if you are going to ask about the Alps. That should open a new screen that gives you a place to choose "General Interest" for the topic category, a box to enter the title, and a bigger box in which to type your new message.

Hope this helps.

I'm at work in LI (about 1hr+ dep on traffic, east of NYC) waiting for tomorrow night! I'll be flying to Paris and taking the train to Brussels! I'll be in Europe until the 28th I can't wait

Amazing! Since I responded to this on 07/12/2005 at 05:22 pm, there is still a stack of papers on my desk behind me. Different papers (Lord, I hope.)

Doing a nightshift at the hospital, Amsterdam, the Netherlands. It's nice and quiet here, almost time to go home&get some sleep and The Clash "Should I stay or should I go" is on the radio playing behind me. I love everything in the previous sentence. Life can be perfect.

Sitting with my laptop in the recliner facing my back window which has a wonderful view of the Niagara Escarpment in Ontario which is just lovely this time of year. The kids and grandkids have left after a nice visit for Mothers Day...just enjoying the peace and quiet and thinking about a trip to perhaps Italy...

nukesafe,

i knew the 'post a new message' tab was missing on my screen. then when i tried to type something on the search field, space grew bigger and the missing tab suddenly appeared on the left.

thanks, anyway!

i am sitting in my kitchen on my laptop, looking out the window at the watsatch mountain range, which is where my house/kitchen is located! planning my upcoming trip departing june 5 for Italy, Greece, Turkey, more Italy & finally Paris. wondering how in the heck i ever planned my other europe trips 20 yrs. ago without the internet & this forum! this is a fun thread, thanks for starting it.
