... heading back up Cancun. Let me tell you about this water. It was so refreshing and clean. It had this smell that I can't describe, but it was delicious. After cooling off and grabbing a bite to eat we were in the van on the way to our all-inclusive hotel.

The Great Parnassus was a wonderful place for us to stay because of the activities available for children. However, we did not use of the services. On one side of the hotel is ...

... br>We've left the coach to do some shopping and to make a long overdue Costco run. The weather promises to 'warm up' starting on Monday and we hope to get in some sightseeing as well as a few visits to the local micro breweries!!! In the meantime Ken is a "happy camper" being stuck at home during baseball playoffs as well as football season!

... their side mirrors graze your arm. I can't believe I didn't have my toes run over. Finally making my way to the main road, the traffic was just amazing--wall to wall, honking, scooters skinnying by cars, all of them belching exhaust. I don't think there are any emission laws in Asia. Those surgical masks are worn now as a fashion accessory, and I think more so to avoid breathing in exhaust fumes than protecting from swine flu.

... requesting that he be present for an interview on the 16th at 10 a.m. This is a very good opportunity for Janis, so he had to take it. I am not sure what we will do in Denver, but once again, we will figure it out. Janis leaves tomorrow afternoon to SFO and returns back to Denver on the 17th. Hopefully when he gets back, we can make our way towards Mt. Rushmore.
We arrived in Loveland, Colorado just outside Denver ...

... Pamela Allen. Had I done a bit of research first, I might have tried to take one of her workshops. Her work is great! I did break down and buy a copy of her lasted book, a collaboration with Gwen Marston, an expert in heritage quilts and quilting. What a mix of talents! When I look at the pictures, I'm think they are all some of Freddy's.

Lucky me, I won one of the door prizes so have mementos of the day as well.

... Thai restaurant looked to be a good option for both. I waited several minutes while a Thai lady took the order for a couple sitting near the front window. They were the only customers in the restaurant. Once she was free, I explained that my car ran on vegetable oil and asked if they had any waste oil I could use. She showed me two five-gallon plastic containers behind the kitchen and let me go to work. I thanked her and somewhat filtered the oil as I poured it in the ...

... commenced a year or so of traveling in the US and in Europe and maybe some other places, too. The plan is to work along the way in cool places and to take breaks in between. Since I will be working in cool places, I am going to consider both working and nonworking times as travel. The plan is to work for the summer in North Carolina, vacation, work for 6 months in the UK, vacation, and then work in North Carolina again. Then who knows.

Thanks for reading this, my (latest) blog!

... while I would like to stop time and suspend reality for just a little longer so I can finally just see what I want to see before settling down, that's not gonna happen. I worry that I'm tossing away what progress I've made at leading a normal life. Not that this trip is so significant, but the cumulative effects of my choices are increasingly hard to ignore.

I have to go, though. Don't let that other paragraph lead you to think that ...

... included!) so we won't have to rent it over and over. Eric, Julie, and their two boys Sam and Cole, met up with us in Longmont and along with Adam, Lauren, and Avery, we all went out to dinner at Johnny Carino's. From there, we hung out at Eric and Julie's for a bit, then Eric kindly drove us to the airport for our red-eye (literally my were quite bloodshot when we arrived at JFK) flight that left at 1 AM.

... to take a side road that a biker suggested we take. Street bikers have this tendency to look at our enduro bikes (1/2 dirt bike, 1/2 road bike) and then recommend roads that "you could do easily on those bikes." I've since learned that this translates to anything from hard packed gravel, to soft sand. So Akira and I set off on this side road which was beautifully empty, twisty and newly paved. However 20 miles later the pavement turns to hard ...
