State Department training turns out to be an impressive production. No specifics, of course, since everything is SBU (Sensitive, but unclassified), but rest assured that every new hire is given the latest education in human relations, asertive cooperation, and cultural respect. The 7 new guys in my section, Facility Managers, got our list of ava...

[NOTE: an asterisk * after a photo's title means I wrote a comment about the photo.] To get to Saigon (HCMCITY), I had to stay two nights in Bangkok to catch the next Air France to Saigon, but I only had one full day here to chill. I've got more to say about getting into town from the airport -- what to do when the driver asks for a pit stop --...

Not much happened here, except for one thing that really stuck out in my mind. Everybody was in a rush. Nothing new. Id seen both Canadas and the USA's capital cities in a matter of a week, and they both seem very down to earth cities, except for the people. They are all on missions. Another thing was customs. The security lady said to a Chines...

Hi All! I swore I had written more recently than 3 weeks ago. Well sooo I am mentally checked out of school :-P Whats new right? :-P First I have to share a quote with that I think define my future. My pastor at my church here was talking about doing what you love and how you should ask other people when you have seemed happiest in your life and...

Alright... let's get caught up. A mad dash across the U.S. (with a few small glitches) got us into rural Maryland on Wednesday night. Desperate for a shower, food, and something other than a van to sit in, we crashed in Cumberland MD. An early start the next morning took us to DC for a quick visit with Aunt Faith who works at Bethesda Naval Hosp...

Than after a couple hour layover we are due to fly to San Jose, Costa Rica. My sister, myk and I were able to travel the same flight. My lil bro and dad each had two different flights themselves. Dad from Seattle t...

I need to put in a little rant about Lufthansa before getting into the more interesting bits of my trip.

From the business class lounges to the actual airplane, Lufthansa was an unexpected let down. The worst experiences were the plane rides, both there and back. Once we were in the air, I and every passenger around me (I was lucky eno...

** We are currently traveling from Wells Gray to Whistler in Western Canada which is a journey of about 7 hours. I'm borrowing the tour guides laptop, so I have time to be a little more detailed, and catch up with things in general. Probably won't help the spelling however! ** After DC we headed back to NYC just to finish off and see some of the...

April 19, 2006 Hello, The breakfast was kind of junk because the sausage and the bacon were burnt and THERE WAS NO YOGURT (Erina likes yogurt). Then we left for Philadelphia from NYC!!! The bus ride was boring as always. Most of us slept because we had an early wake-up call. In Philadelphia we saw the Liberty Bell. The bell it self was kind of s...
