I'll be turning 50 this year on a Safari in Tanzania. Wife and I wanted something different and had the miles to go business class anywhere in the world (saved miles for years for this). Didn't want to go anywhere we had already been so a Safari it is.

Now it will be a nice safari, but we'll still be in "tents".

Whatever you do, enjoy it!

Dear artlover, if you are going to turn 60 this year I wish I knew your secret! Good heavens, I thought you were only about 50..honestly. Good genes or good face creams?

Happy New Year to you, your husband your your daughter. And wishes that somehow Alitalia gets your daughter luggage to her in 2007..journals, leather jacket and all.

Dear LoveItaly,
You made my year! Actually, it's the lack of sun here in Seattle :D! Hope you have a fantastic New Year and that we'll be able to get together with you again in the Bay Area and you and DD can converse in Italiano!
