Read about 7 hours so far for #33by33. Started tackling Grapes of Wrath and did some #audiopuzzling with the tagged book to finish my puzzle of the Trevi fountain. Will make much more reading progress in the next few days. @MatchlessMarie

MatchlessMarie I love #AudioPuzzling! And you coffee is gorgeous. (edited) 3y

I miss being able to travel more easily. Scheduling a hibernation vacation for July meant asking how far I could travel comfortably without needing a pit stop. 🤔 I‘m hoping the answer is 3.5 hours.

I‘ve encountered people who didn‘t like to travel, felt no need to visit other places. I‘m the opposite. I‘d be happy to spend a whole lot more time traveling, staying in new places for an extended visit. Someday....

March / April TBR. Almost finished with the tagged read. It‘s very thought-provoking and makes me want to travel to Morocco, Iran, Palestine... well, everywhere! ✈️

Lindy @Redwritinghood @Ruthiella @ReadingSusan @saresmoore @Daisey Awww, you are all so sweet! Thanks. It‘s a Finnish sour cream cake flavoured with cardamom and cinnamon: kermakakku from 5y
batsy That's a beauty 💫💖 5y
Redwritinghood @Lindy Gosh that sounds delicious. Love those spices and it sounds like it would be great for Christmas. Thanks. 5y
Lindy @batsy @Redwritinghood Thanks. I bake this at least once a year because it‘s a favourite. I was asked to bring something baked to the party and I knew there would be figgy pudding (set on fire) so I chose to make this not-very-sweet cake that‘s traditionally served without icing. It was a hit. ☺️ 5y
LeahBergen Wow! 😍😍 5y

tpixie @ferskner hoping to go Sept 2019. I just should‘ve gone back in high school or college when I was fluent in French!In Dec heading to Niagra Falls Ontario- my son is dancing in a Christmas dance/ ice Capades show at the Fallsview Casino there! 6y
ferskner @tpixie those both sound like awesome trips! I didn't have my passport with me when I went to Niagra Falls (spur of the moment) and I've always regretted not seeing it from the Canadian side. 6y
tpixie @ferskner ah snap! I went as a young child before we needed passports, but barely remember it. I accidentally let my passport lapse, so luckily I got a new one in time to go see my son & the sites! 6y

I've barely begun, but this book has already brought me to happy and sad tears as I contemplated our giant world and my potential place in it. Also, this is the first time in days the air quality has been okay enough to spend a few minutes outside!

Rick Steve's provided a unique way of looking at travel and taking the fear out of exploring new cultures. He put an interesting spin on the success of European issues that Americans struggle with. I am ready to embrace traveling with an open mind. @sunflowers @tpixie

ReadingisMyPassion Sounds interesting. 6y
ReadingisMyPassion Certainly matches my bio LOL 6y
Sills @ReadingisMyPassion It most certainly does that is why I tagged you🙂 6y
