Souvenirs from Around the World
Souvenirs from Around the World, originally uploaded by Stimpdawg. I got this idea from Andy’s My REAL Wall except I used souvenirs instead of postcards. I took some of my souvenirs that I bought or saved during our trip around the world.. and placed them on my whiteboard/corkboard. Click the photo or here to view the Flickr page with notes for each souvenir.
Headed Home
Ivan, Jennifer and I woke up very early on November 3, 2009. Jennifer couldn’t sleep last night. She kept hearing the songs from Priscilla Queen of the Desert in her head. I guess she was also thinking about flying back home. I know she’s sad to be going back to Las Vegas. Ivan and I will remain in England.

The movie was only okay. Ivan and Jen thought it would have been a lot funnier. It was time to head to Southend. We hopped on…
