Before going over, I thought for sure we would rent scooters to zip around the island - after all, I had a motorcycle from 1993 until 2005 - but I just didn't trust myself to not drive on the wrong side. At one pint, I was sitting at the bus stop and crazily waving a scooter over because I was sure they were driving on the wrong side. Sheesh! I'm glad I didn't cause an accident.Vesuviusmamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08447649002367621196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678998574963856841.post-70154889558066532052012-07-23T16:52:49.098+09:302012-07-23T16:52:49.098+09:30Love the tumblers, aren't they fun!?!

Good luck!!<br />Not surprised your Dad loved his quilt, or that you want to make another one, it's fabulous, love it...Jindi's Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16992636405509781373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678998574963856841.post-39588428129584406562012-07-21T14:10:52.424+09:302012-07-21T14:10:52.424+09:30Yay!

We don't fertilize, water (except a little with a dripper hose), or spray for bugs. We get wonderful tangerines and oranges, and an occasional lemon. <br />I heard the phrase "Home is where your Mom lives", but not in my case.<br />HugsTerrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08927552672720816359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3678998574963856841.post-7691677311305875172012-07-18T00:59:04.117+09:302012-07-18T00:59:04.117+09:30I was totally freaked out...but not by the road, i...I was totally freaked out...but not by the road, it was that FACE pull :)<br /><br />Home is where your family is.
