Living outside the USA it is always a pleasure to learn more about your country. I particularly love your photos of the places you are visiting and the little snippits of history. I always end up googling the place afterwards to find out more. Enjoy your stay on the Island and the Grand Hotel.

The book has such a nice layout and the instructions are excellent. I'm thinking Midnight Flight and Ceddar Bow Ties are on my list to do.<br /><br />I'm wishing for some sun for you. The island is a magical place. <br />About ten years ago I chaperoned a group of Girl Scouts there for a few days, fun. A few years later our family took a trip there. That trip was more fun.Lakegaldonnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14473542867185039796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-46027727325741343542014-05-02T14:18:56.156-04:002014-05-02T14:18:56.156-04:00You are sure to have a grand time on the iland.. ...You are sure to have a grand time on the iland.. wish I could be there.

I was pretty sure that when you were excitedly talking about this trip to the island that you were going to be met with frozen straights water, piles of snow, etc. it's a whole different world in the summer time.
