Hope you're warmer than we are!

Hi Avril and Mike,

Hope you're enjoying San Francisco. It's really cold here today and I'm thinking of you in that fantastic city.

I'm just writing this to try it out really - to see if I've set up the account correctly. Looking forward to hearing all about the cruise when you board the ship.

We'll all be thinking of you, Avril, on Monday at the writers' meeting.

love, Sylvia

Greetings from Paris to the Streets of San Francisco!

Bonjour Les aventurers!

By the time you read this you should be on stable land with Mike feeling (I imagine!) alot happier! Looking forward to reading your adventures, will make up for my missing Corrie and The Jungle etc
We have a bit of European travelling to do for work whilst you're away so will take this opportunity to wish you the best of times on your voyages!
At least we'll have the time this summer to enjoy the memories you are going to make and the photos you are going to take!
Kisses
Lynn & Jacky

One More Day

After a slight hiccup with making my blog "accessible to others" I assume I have
finally cracked it as I now appear to have a few followers. Thank you for your
comments so far.
By the way if you don't want your comments to appear on my actual blog page I think
all you need to do is just scroll down to the end of each post and click on "comments".
That's about as technical as I am going to get!
Well, I shan't be writing anymore until I am actually on the boat sailing to Hawaii -
i.e. early February.
Meanwhile San Francisco here we come.....
Bye for now.

HAPPY TRAVELS

Hello Avril,
You lucky people. It should be a wonderful trip. I'm very envious.
Look forward to receiving the reports.
Best wishes,
Love
June

Bon Voyage

Hi Avril,

I think I'm all set to follow your adventures! Looked at your itinerary and wished I could come along with you and Mike. It looks absolutely fantastic....and warm and sunny and tropical and exotic! Have a blast and we look forward to hearing from you. Wishing you smooth seas! Karenxx

Bonne Voyage !

This is a test Avril. Congratulations on setting this up. Probably the most difficult task of your entire trip ! You will have an incredible time- enjoy every minute.

I do hope this works -it is all so complicated and full of ' computer jargon' !

Bonnes Voyages both of you. xxxx
