durham



So Shirley and her sisters Marie, Lois, and Kay, and their daughters Jessica, Sherri, Allison, and Amy, and I are all getting together for our semi-annual girls' weekend. I got real excited when we talked about going to Durham. I double-checked my passport, priced flights to the UK, and started monitoring the exchange rate between dollars and pounds.

It turns out that's not the Durham they were talking about.



I'll be picking the next destination. It will require a passport.

Haven't you already been to the UK? I think you should step out on a limb and try something different! I'm pretty sure you can't get much more different than India. You can come visit us, we even have an extra room.

OK, Mel...now I've got a traveling itch. Aren't plane tickets to your corner of the world a bit pricey?

AAAGGHHH! I just looked at ticket prices. Is there a cheap way to get there that they don't tell you about?

ok, you made me laugh...You could go to Senegal for about $1500 round trip...

If you're going to THAT Durham I assume you'll be packin'? (And no, I don't mean luggage.) ;)

That's funny K! I told her the same thing, and I'm the anti-handgun girl. Oh by the way Carroll, if you see a weird man on a bike with a giant orange bucket of fish bait riding around, don't shoot him. He's my bus stop friend.

If India is too pricey, there's always Moscow! Come in the summer, though.

always disappointing when international plans don't work out!

You could get on a ship...it might take you a year to get here, but it's all about saving a buck, right?! :) Actually I was thinking that it would work out well if you visit wandering family in the summer and us in the winter - you don't want to see us in the summer!
