  1. No, haven't been there. Do you have one of their fountain pens? :)
    And I agree, no more airplanes. Commercial anyway. If someone wants to take me on Trump One then OK.

    1. I wish!
      I agree - MAYBE on Trump's plane - maybe.

  2. I don't fly either, between motion sickness and the molesting...I will walk first. Have you thought about sailing? They say freighters are the way to go, very few passengers, the cooking and company is better, too. Then, the train or rent a car from there.

    1. If I can't drive - I don't go! Never have been on a cruise. On a boat with thousand of other people in the middle of the ocean is not a vacation for me! Prefer the mountains and fishing all day!
