I think he just needs some piece of mind.<BR/><BR/>Now all I need to make sure is that I have a travel partner, because I know for sure he will not let me go alone.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08062688353998812087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6407225028414554266.post-13411045091849783012007-02-18T01:40:00.000-06:002007-02-18T01:40:00.000-06:00And he might view me as unbiased some how.

And if he would like to speak with me, I would be more than happy to speak with him.:-)Maryam in Marrakeshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04847860772735091153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6407225028414554266.post-24856007929450531732007-02-17T10:29:00.000-06:002007-02-17T10:29:00.000-06:00Jill, You are a jem!

That doesn't mean I've never had bad experiences - I have (been pickpocketed and harassed of course) but I've never actually felt in danger.<BR/><BR/>Anyhow, good luck! If your dad does call the Embassy, he should try to speak with one of the younger women who work there.Jillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01792137126898623243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6407225028414554266.post-81708149430175421152007-02-16T12:06:00.000-06:002007-02-16T12:06:00.000-06:00Hey Pink, I know you :) I actually read your blog ...Hey Pink, I know you :) I actually read your blog just about everyday. I have to admit I am a bit of a blog stalker, not leaving comments, but I do like what you and Anna are doing with Casapinka. <BR/><BR/>I agree this will be the trip of a lifetime, but my dad is seemingly too protective to see that US news, blows EVERYTHING out of proportion<BR/><BR/>Ps. Stay tuned, I think you'll like my next post.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08062688353998812087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6407225028414554266.post-79121846362638307472007-02-16T09:55:00.000-06:002007-02-16T09:55:00.000-06:00Wow, I just happened onto your blog and this is fa...Wow, I just happened onto your blog and this is fascinating.
