Over The Fence Community Group
A quote from one of our happy Over The Fence members: "Hi JS- Thank you for the welcome message. Do you remember that show Home Improvement and the neighbor Wilson Wilson Jr. who would meet Tim the Tool Man at the fence, but never showed anything but his eyes? He was so funny. This group reminds me of those encounters... you get the wisdom, humor, and support from your DS...
If I could go anyplace I would go back to Rio de Janeiro on the beachfront apt. on Ipanema my husband's company owned and stay with our friends who lived there. Then I would watch the beautiful New Year's Eve launching paper boats with flowers or a small jewel ( not valuable) in hopes the Sea Goddess would grant their wishes. If the paper boat went out to sea, their wish was granted. If it returned it was denied. All the participants dressed in white; Candles blazed all over the beach near the water. It was a ceremony of the Candomble religion.
All there to watch stood respectfully at a distance and silently watched. Very moving ceremony.

Best place I have been to was Mazatlan Mexico, awesome beaches, nice locals, had a great time. tried that parasailing? whoop whoop I was so nervous! But it was fun.
If I could go I would go to Italy, the food, the scenery, the language!
for an inexpensive vacation its the top.
if you want to travel for food, you may want to go an easy route and go to epcot in florida. they have chefs from each country and a replica of small areas of each country and souvinirs so its a nice way to see a little bit of everything. stay in kissimmee, as its five minutes from the entrance and its also cheaper, around $39 per night for a room.
if i could go anywhere right now i'd want to tour parts of central america and south america for about a year if possible, because i haven't been there at all yet. either along the amazon or just around the coastal areas, haven't figured it out yet.
LOL!!
