SIDEBAR #53 - Travis Alexander forum

An almost blind guy walked into a sexy lingerie shop to purchase their most see-through item for his wife.
After receiving some help from the store clerk, he bought a lace teddy for $600 and brought it home for his wife to try on.
She took it upstairs and realized that it didn't quite fit.
But, she figured, since it's supposed to be see-through and since he's almost blind, she might as well wear nothing at all.
So she came downstairs completely naked. "Huh," said the old man, hugging her.
"For the amount I paid, they could've at least ironed the damn thing."

That used to be one of my dreams, too. But having very long legs, I have (sadly) crossed that off my list. It would take me too long to recover from the flight. Unless, that is, I can somehow come up with the money to go First Class...

All of our trip is comfortable and paid for. Just bring mad money for the shops and your imagination. What do we need to stock the kitchen and bar with?

Solitary Confinement: Punished for Life

"...Sealed for years in a hermetic environment — one inmate likened the prison’s solitary confinement unit to “a weapons lab or a place for human experiments” — prisoners recounted struggling daily to maintain their sanity. They spoke of longing to catch sight of a tree or a bird. Many responded to their isolation by shutting down their emotions and withdrawing even further, shunning even the meager human conversation and company they were afforded..."

When the corpse flowers bloom, people flock

"A rotten stench has been wafting through a greenhouse at the Denver Botanic Gardens — and visitors are all too eager to breathe it in. Who knows if they’ll ever get a second chance?

The odiferous offender is a plant native to the Indonesian island of Sumatra and known commonly as the "corpse flower" — for reasons that are pungently apparent when it starts blooming. At that point, it becomes a botanical stink bomb, emitting a noisome odor evolved to attract certain beetles and flies, which unwittingly spread the plant’s pollen. All told, the blooming process can take about 36 hours and won't happen again for years — if ever..."

I'd want to see/ go through the tunnel when we visit Paris. The Eiffel Tower is a given, and there is so much more to see. The Louvre, the catacombs, Palace of Versailles. So much more. Who's been to Paris so we can see it through their eyes? We want sights, sounds, smells and taste of the french cuisine.

 

[GigiG]

All of our trip is comfortable and paid for. Just bring mad money for the shops and your imagination. What do we need to stock the kitchen and bar with?

Well, champagne, of course! Artisanal breads and cheeses, fresh organic fruits, berries and other seasonal produce, French pastries... Oh what the hell, since it's all paid for, let's bring along a personal chef with a portable cooktop to prepare meals for us on the bus when we're not dining at great regional restaurants!

 

[GigiG]

I would not know how that feels...being I am 5'1" :spinner: lucky you

Just imagine that your knees are wedged up against the (hard and unyielding) seat in front of you, and not having enough room to the right or left to move in such a way as to get relief. Then imagine sitting like that for hours.

Thanks, airlines! Hope you're enjoying all that money you're making from reconfiguring the seating (in your dangerously old jetliners), leaving average-height people virtually no leg room...

As it stands, I can barely make it to California (5.30+ hours) without crying in pain.

So you're about the same height as Jodi Arias, who was repeatedly described as "petite."

The one thing I can tell you (verified by other travelers), is to be aware that as charming as it looks to dine al fresco at those cute outdoor cafes, the menu prices differ. In other words, the same meal eaten outside costs more than if you it eat inside, and as I recall, it's even cheaper if you eat at the bar/counter rather than at a table.

Just something to consider.

Depending on how adventurous you are, I would also recommend getting accommodations through AirB&B. A much more authentic experience than staying at a hotel, and sometimes nicer and cheaper!
