She also traveled all over for her photography career and China was one of those places that she said, every time she turned a corner her first thought was '' I wish Glen (her husband) was here to see this with me. So they went back together...I bet u will feel the same and wish your family was there to share the sights along side you.....like u said..maybe some day. <BR/>Have fun, good luck, and get home safe and sound. Look forward to u sharing your travels with us all.Moonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02640737315196786989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-62099105451418974142007-05-06T23:04:00.000-04:002007-05-06T23:04:00.000-04:00Just great, Carmi!I hope you have a fantastic time...Just great, Carmi!<BR/>I hope you have a fantastic time!<BR/>Good luck and all my best to you!sonia a. mascarohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02415359150944729620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-43943662375075912332007-05-06T15:16:00.000-04:002007-05-06T15:16:00.000-04:00that would be *medium being the message.. think I ...that would be *medium being the message.. think I wrote media but not sure because of your comment moderation, hehelongspiderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04393768193680768465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-6535973709408761582007-05-06T15:15:00.000-04:002007-05-06T15:15:00.000-04:00Good luck on you big adventure!

Can't wait 'til you come back with photos!<BR/><BR/>Btw - I love writing with a pen on a pad of paper and frequently write down my initial thoughts or story ideas by hand... it is like the paper inspires a different kind of creativity, or something. Something about the media being the message, I think. And I love the smell of paper - like when you open a new book for the first time :)longspiderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04393768193680768465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-72308199999117432612007-05-06T09:53:00.000-04:002007-05-06T09:53:00.000-04:00Have a good time.

Sometimes being over here, we forget what it was like to step off of that plane and experience China up close and personal for the first time. (If only you could send smells over the internet as well!)<BR/>Enjoy the noodles, the bustling city life. I'll wave to you from across the straights. And plan to take the wife and kiddos with you. China has to be experienced first hand!<BR/><BR/>I'll have to post about my time on the other side of the planet some other time.

I've read a lot about the former Jewish community there (isn't that an oxymoron?) and it's history between the WWs. It's a fascinating place. <BR/><BR/>The place I've felt the most alone and out of my environment was when I got sick in Morocco and spent 6 weeks in a hospital. First in Fez, and then in Marrakesh, where they moved me. People spoke Arabic and French. I spoke English, Hebrew, and Spanish. Let us say communication was at a standstill when someone from the embassy wasn't there to translate.margalithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09782326504951603071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7449503.post-87872401054700670772007-05-05T18:39:00.000-04:002007-05-05T18:39:00.000-04:00I bet you'll have some gorgeous pictures to share ...I bet you'll have some gorgeous pictures to share when you get home.
