Next stop...... Amsterdam!

I hope every one has a great weekend....

Now off to Alaska where my buddy Alex is already panning for gold! I chose the train ride through this beautiful part of America… It’s the only place in the country where you can stand beside the tracks and wave the train down… yes it will stop for you too…( I didn’t make that up…)…. Get your camera ready…. (Closing eyes)… Feel the sway of the train as it moves beneath your feet?….feel the comfort of the seat as you sit back and look out on to the tundra… everyone gets a window seat on this vacation…and to all of my wonderful friends that didn’t know we were going cold after the Island…it just so happens that I have your size in mukluks… No one gets sick on this vacation either…. So feel free to drink the water anywhere we go! Or run naked threw the snow, wearing one boot …. What ever your heart desires… Our train ride ends in a place that takes our breath away…. The air is clean and crisp……. LOOK! There down by that stream! See the man waving at us with the big smile on his face? That’s Alex… This is his place that he has shared with us…. I really can see this wonderful place in my mind… the snow top mountains in the back ground, as rolling hills of green tree’s spill up to the edge of a beautiful blue snaked river that balloons out into a lake… It almost makes you want to wipe a tear away…. But there’s no crying on this vacation…No sadness or anger or hate…. Only happiness. And a bunch of wonderful friends…. Oh what a great day this has been in Alaska and what better to finish the day by sitting in front of a warm camp fire… listening to music and drinking our favorite beverages… See you all tomorrow with exciting scenes from our next vacation spot…until then….(emoticon pulling on ear lobe) I’m so glad we had this time together.

The breeze is so soft here! (Closing eyes) …. And the sand so warm… not hot like you would think… Lucy has brought beer and music (grab one) and Kktaylorcc has brought us all sunscreen! ….. That’s Tank in the hammock over there under those tree’s… (Kk brought that too…she thinks of everything!)… And look how nice Mrs. Morgan looks in her red swimming suit… And yes…. That’s the Captain trying to look down the front of it…. He’s such a card…. Ohh…. this is a nice day! After swimming and sunning and laughing and drinking we have all settled here… Here where the Captain has been before… This is his spot that he has shared with us… This lovely Island where the people are happy to see you… Our lodging is clothing optional and Tank is taking full advantage… He has hardly worn his cloths since he got here! And I must say he doesn’t need them… Looking good Tank! (Emotiocon giving Tank the thumbs up)…. Lucy seems to be the life of the party so far… It was she that set up all the pretty music that you hear playing right now…and yep…that’s her over there dancing with….well, I can’t really make out who that is yet… but I’m sure she will introduce us all soon… And see those Island children way over there? No not there…. Further back near the big palms shaped like a “W”…. See the pretty lady in front of them taking their picture? That’s Kk…. She led the conga line last night… and I brought up the rear! Yes this is a wonderful cyber vacation! And even though my eyes have to be closed to enjoy everything it is turning out to be the best vacation ever! Vacation of the imagination!…. And the best part is the friends aren’t imagined!….
