on the road and keeping in touch 02

Sent to friends Tuesday past...

Hi again y'all...

So Tuesday (today) is my last working day before I travel... Going to take Wednesday off, and I travel Thursday.

For the yoga-gang, this means our weekly gathering will resume December 3rd.

My low-level cough has turned into a full-fledged infection... This despite sleeping in late for one week+ to get rest. That just sucks... To get sick before travel. I've started a natural anti-biotic and big doses of vitamin c so it should be cleared up soon. I've even reduced coffee...

Loren is still out of town (maybe back today??), so this morning was extra-long at home to clean the kitchen and prepare the house for her...

Gilles has made another significant suggestion, he's recommended that I visit Bad Bertrich (traditional water therapy) for a soak. One of my favorite pass-times (thermal bathing). I think it's close enough, no (see link) ?

http://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=Lutzerath%2C%20Germany&daddr=50.0702777778%2C7.03268333333%20(%22Water-cure%20Establishment%22)&ie=utf-8&v=2.2&cv=4.2.0205.5730&hl=en

So (surprisingly) I've received flack about my comments about Germany's food, wine and Mozel valley's beauty.

Really folks I understand that I'm in for a treat with all of this...

I'm sorry if my comments (humour) sounded rude arrogant and ignorant: :-) I have to reconsider my delivery I guess. And maybe also my…


…timing… :-)


Or maybe just my humour itself… Or maybe just myself itself…

More good news... Gilles says the bakery just a few doors down will have warm breakfast pretzels, this is an experience Colin insists I have... I've never been to Germany, and am really excited about this trip. I'm planning to stop in Trier on my way down the Mozel. Maybe some of the first photos will be of Tasty Trier luncheon treats... we'll see...

The security officer here at work yesterday reminded me about picking up my new passport.

How did I forget that?!!!

Today, being remembrance day, the passport office is closed and I would have had to do it on Wednesday... I had been planning to chill Wednesday, not rush all over the city running errands...

Last minute efforts getting hardware, software and data to carry and install on site... oh yeah the final version of the software isn't ready yet... I might have to make a special trip to work on a day off to collect the latest-and-greatest...

Sugamoto-San, arigato gozai-mas for the photos you sent through Claude, what a treat bumping into Tokyo friends here in Montreal!!

Aunt V,send me your phone number so I can call before I leave!!!!

BeWellStayOuttaTrouble!!!
