I can imagine the climate shock you have gone through, so hope you settle back in really quickly. <br />A shame to have gone all that way to be disappointed by the Falls, but, intrepid traveller as you are, you take the good with the not so ... <br />Love all the beautiful colours of the leaves, and those trees in their setting are breathtaking.

I thought of you last night. Gregg and I went for a nice long walk and it was the first bitterly cold one we had been on this season. Must be lovely to get back to your Brisbane climate. Gregg's brother and his wife are enjoying a holiday in California right now.

Also it is quite time consuming and I felt I would be neglecting my partner, which I quite happily do at home. I think if you do it once home, you produce much better posts and you have proper time to go through photos. Sounds like a pretty good holiday.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8856747756759071827.post-22122807676246708022014-12-08T11:27:18.235+10:002014-12-08T11:27:18.235+10:00I like to take my laptop when travelling and would...I like to take my laptop when travelling and would often do short posts while away.

So sorry you had so many internet problems. I wondered why/how Kathy could do it and you all couldn't. Now I know! <br /><br />I have a blog post tomorrow --but won't be blogging much until I start feeling better and get this knee taken care of... I will however try to at least read posts (even if I don't comment)... I will however be posting off and on on Facebook (since it's so simple) if you want to check there when possible. <br /><br />Hugs,<br />BetsyBetsy Banks Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16223591156634767330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8856747756759071827.post-30037199597660991552014-12-08T04:05:25.563+10:002014-12-08T04:05:25.563+10:00so beautiful and glad you are home safely... vacat...so beautiful and glad you are home safely... vacations are for fun, not fighting with wi fi connections. if i were out there i would just enjoy all that beautiful woods and forget the posting. just like you did...
