Ready for Holiday

Elene and I had planned on driving up to Canada however, we both decided to protest the high gasoline prices by not driving anywhere.  We have planned instead to take the train from Sacramento to San Jose and spend a few nights there and visit Great America park.  Of course, the hotel has a nice swimming pool... this is a surprise huh Philip?  

Oliver, I'm glad your surgery went well... It really boosts the self-confidence when everyone laughs at you eh?  Just remind them, what goes around comes around... :)

Intro

Ok, Im going to give blogging a shot.  I have enjoyed so much over the past year the blogs of Oliver, Philip and Manuel, I figured I should reciprocate.  What a great way to stay in-touch with everyone.  Never have I kept a diary so, it may be difficult for me to remember to keep up with it but, I'll try.
