Hello Oshiro Jason Charles Hani Ed Ria Simone Chaya and all, You impressed me again with your curiosity and aptitude,old friend,Oshiro!!!LOL
Others may just wish me a bon voyage,but you went straight to google the city on the Internet and desired to see it for yourself!;) You are certainly a keen learner of LIFE and that makes me very proud of having a friend like you!!!LOL I miss receiving hand-written greeting cards,postcards or even better letters tremendously!:( I recall 9 years ago at a Yahoo group I later co-founded,all of us more sentimental members started to send one another pictures and letters at Christmas just with the hope to read one another's handwriting and signitures...LOL I had such a wonderful time waiting for,opening and reading letters from all over the world and by just looking at the stamps,the paper and envelopes they chose for me was a mere pleasure already!;) By the way,Oshiro,I'm still too busy to google the books I promised you last week.:( My 2 sons and I are still fighting with the changeable weather to recover from our flu... The older son was ordered by the doctor to stay away from school for at least 2 days today...:( My doctor's appointment is booked for later next week only because too amny people are ill,even the doctor who was supposed to see my son this morning was... So he was rescheduled to see a doctor unknown to us...:( Take very good care of yourself,Oshiro and all of you! I'll keep you updated with the weather conditions in Europe before you pack your suitcae to come next month... Or you should add the weather forecast of those 2 cities on your homepage to keep yourself informed.;) Great day,everyone!
