Hi Sara.
Lol, it was pretty funny. I still remember his eyes appearing in the rear view mirror… a stern glare… and not a sound. I got the message :-)

Davina — This is so much fun. It’s like I’m taking the vacation with you. You have a talent for describing things. I loved the bump while on the bus and I can see in mind how I envision the bus driver, given your description. What fun:~)

Hi Barbara. :-)
I’ve just been reading the comments on my next post and feel so honoured to be able to share what I enjoy doing so much… writing and storytelling, and to know that everyone is enjoying this. And, I appreciate that you took the time to get all caught up because I know how busy you are. I’m having a moment right now :-) What an absolute pleasure this is! Thank you for sharing it with me.

Hi Davina,

Somehow I missed this installment.

I love how you’re so nonchalant about how things went, even if they didn’t go according to plan. I love the line, “With practice, we learn to go with the flow and realize that time emerges of it’s own accord, whether we are on board or not.”

You’re writing is awesome, Davina

Hi Hilary.
Course… I’M the virgin! My shoes are the dirty ones now, lol. The bus ride was an interesting “trip”. Especially when I left… I almost missed the ferry again… the ferry towards home. Perhaps that would have been a GOOD thing.

Hi Patricia.
Blisters are such an inconvenience. You were smart to break your shoes in for a while before your trip. I’ve learned to carry band-aids with me a lot. Even shoes I’ve owned for years give me blisters if I start to wear them in a new season. Maybe I should just go barefoot :-) That would be my preference anyway.

Wow nearly a blister – that would be bad on vacation. I got my shoes in April and worn them inside for a month and for and 4 months outside walking before I was walking in the UK. I got a “hot spot” on one foot when my knee began to swell with so much sitting, and my back up shoes proved not to be very comfortable at all.
As I get older, shoes are such an important part of my comfort and relaxation – grounding I am thinking.

Hi Davina .. I think I need to enter into the fun .. Jannie’s taking it all at the moment .. talk about asking questions of you .. yea .. we all know what’s going on .. are you the virgin, or are the shoes??!! That’s my little tiny fun question! Sounds like if you don’t take the bus .. you miss all the fun at the fair or the thyme town – wonderful names they’ve got.

It’ll be good to get the next instalment .. just have a peaceful week ahead .. go carefully – Hilary Melton-Butcher

Hi Lori.
I had to stop halfway on the trail to put a band-aid on and saved a blister thankfully. Blisters can spoil a vacation big time. You could still do a write-up on your recent trip. The photos would tell the story and you could just use captions. Personally… as much as I love writing and storytelling… looking at pretty pictures is even better!

What fun I’ve had catching up on your vacation!

Virgin hiking shoes? I hope you didn’t get blisters.

Thank you for sharing these moments. You make me want to write up my recent trip, but it would be heavy on the photos and light on the story line.

Hi Patricia.
Ha, ha… a glowing Italian. :-) He was you know! One of those people that just sparkle. I couldn’t get over it.

Hi Megan.
I love the idea of chopping wood… sounds so primitive. Brings back good memories. Once you and your boyfriend have that drink, the needs-to-be-cleaned dining room won’t matter :-)

Hi Julie.
I have a real hard time picturing you with a racing mind. But good to know this has helped you :-)

Hi Jannie.
YOU again! :-) You’re such fun.

A town called Intercourse!!! Ha, ha. Oooh, I like your version of the story MUCH better. Yes indeedy.
