Juju2bigdog | Thursday, April 19, 2001 - 10:20 am  Thanks for checking in Nancy. Sounds like a great time. But yikes, $12 for a half hour internet time. My time in Sydney was $3 AU for unlimited, $2 for an hour, $1 for a half hour, or $1.50, $1 and 50 cents U.S. That was probably because I was in an area with lots of backpackers and lots of competition. Enjoy, enjoy.

Soeur | Friday, April 20, 2001 - 07:26 am  Nancy, so glad to hear about what a great time you are having. Stratford-Upon-Avon Meet you in chat after you return so you can share some memories...  |
Max | Friday, April 20, 2001 - 07:27 am  Nancy, Isn't Westminster Abbey amazing?! It was strange, though, to realize I was walking over the tops of so many graves. Did you do any of the brass rubbings there? Oh man, I wanna go back to Europe SOOOO bad!!! Thanks for giving us this little travelogue. |
Soeur | Friday, April 20, 2001 - 07:32 am  looking for a good link to the abbey... |

Tess | Friday, April 20, 2001 - 12:47 pm  Thanks, Willi and Soeur for the links. I feel like I'm almost there. Nancy's on my dream trip so I'm loving all the pictures and info. Thanks, Nancy, for sharing. Have a blast!! |
Max | Friday, April 20, 2001 - 12:52 pm  I never finished my European trip pages (I'm still working on my scrapbook, too!), but here's a bit of the stuff from that trip in May of 1999. DISCLAIMER: I haven't updated my pages in a LONG time, as you'll see if you go to the home page. I'm also trying to switch ISPs, but it's taking a lot longer than I thought it would, so if the link doesn't work, it's probably because my account has finally been disabled and I moved elsewhere.  |
Twiggyish | Friday, April 20, 2001 - 03:03 pm  Max, great pictures! I really loved the Austria and Italy pics. Thanks for sharing. |
Soeur | Friday, April 20, 2001 - 03:54 pm  Max those pics are great (so is your whole site)! |
Willi | Friday, April 20, 2001 - 03:56 pm  Wow! Very enjoyable Web site...I'm going on a couple cyber-vacations...Thanks. |
Max | Friday, April 20, 2001 - 04:08 pm  Thanks for the compliments, folks! That was before I got a digital camera, so I never did end up scanning the zillions of pics from the trip to get them posted (takes too long!).
Maybe I'll take some time soon and update those pages. |
Nancy091158 | Saturday, April 21, 2001 - 07:51 am  awww i have been to the trafalgar square and wallked around==maybe we can plan a time tomorrow evening i am free from 7pm on and also monday morning before i leave for home..Windsor castle today was \awesome--actually warwick is tomorrow with a civil war reenactment...today was the queens birthday 75th and she was in residence---caught a glimpse of her out walking her yorgi's!!! the guard played happy birthday as they went by her private entrance....it was really cool--we toured queen mary's dollhouse a replica of the palace done in scale... tonight we go see god only knows---and god only knowss what this play is(i say) but its supposed to be a comedy. |
Nancy091158 | Saturday, April 21, 2001 - 07:55 am  OH by the way a midsummer nites dream last night was performed with Jemma Redgrave(the youngest of the redgrave sisters) in the lead role of hippolyta she was really great!!! and a woman who plays in some british comedy(the vicar's something or other--donna?? (a rather large woman) sorry i dont watch pbs much!! played the role of bottom--normally a role performed by men---but she was veryyy good --the play started out as if it were in london in the 1940's and then progressed to the forest-- |
