Hi Gard

I just want to tell you how very much I enjoyed your Travel Report (Thailand 2007)!

If you are not a writer, you have missed your calling.

You are by far the best the very best.....hands-down.

I would rather read your Trip Reports than any other ones in any magazines. And I subscribe to Conde Nast, Travel and Leisure and Budget Travel.
I am a travel agent, and although I do Corporate Travel rather than leisure travel, I book my people to most of the places in your reports.

Please....do NOT take me off your mailing-list.

Regards,
Diane

Dear Nikki & Gard,

Thank you very much for your information. July 2003 I climbed Mt Kilimanjaro and reached Uhuru peak by the grace of God. Its was hard trek. A group of six of us we started to climbed on the 18/07/2003 and ended on 22/07/2003. Four of us we manage to reach to Uhuru peak. I was preparing very well by doing a lot of exercise but as I said early I reached Uhuru peak by the grace of God. Something went wrong when I reached Kibo. I loose appetite and feel dizziness. From KIbo to Gilman point I vomit once. From Gilman point to Uhuru peak I vomit twice. On the 19th July next week I will try to climb for the second time with a group of 17 young people from Zanzibar. We trek for fund raise for the renovation of our Cathedral (Former Slave Market – Zanzibar) we already buy Diamox for Mountain Sickness, but I am not sure if I will use this tablet or to wait until I reached Kibo. Thank Gard for your information, I will use your information as a guide to my colleagues whom they will climbe for the first time. I think our big challenge will be a problem of attitude as I experience 2003. God bless.

We found your info on Venice extremely helpful and well written. We are on a 14 day trip with two days in Venice which with your info sounds like the right amount of time.
Thanks,

Read your report on your 2005 Japan trip. I have been there numerous times as an independent traveler since 1982. Compliments to a well-written and presented review of your trip. In fact, extremely well-done. Japan is a tourist paradise in many respects and I'm glad you so enjoyed yourselves. Next time stay for a month and travel at your whim anywhere you wish on a JR Railpass but learn as much Japanese as you can before going to maximize the experience.
Yes, the country can be intoxicating making you promise to return. All the best to you and Nikki in your future travels.

P.S. I recommend you make a statement to assure those "signing in" on your guestbook will have their email addresses "protected" and not given to anyone else or displayed anyway. That's why I didn't write my email address above.

hi
i am impressed by your attention of the details about every place you go ,the article about china is very accurate and cute,interesting. maybe i am used to that,but through your words,i cant help smiling.

Hi Gard and Nikki,

Just found your website by accident and I spent the past 6 hours looking over your incredible and informative travel pages.

Thanks so much for the tips. I was looking for good recommendation for restaurant in Italy and I found more than I bargained for.

What a great job you did. For fun, I looked at your trip of NYC (I am originally from NY) and it made me want to go back, you have seen more than I have.

Again, thanks for sharing and for the great information and knowledge.
