Wowow I have missed this board! I have started to read all the posts and havent a clue as to where to begin in replying to some interesting questions and great discussions!

Hope all of you are in fine health and good spirits. Work and some personal and family things have kept me very busy but I have to make time for the fun stuff too...sa7?

Actually I just returned a week ago from a week in Sharm and fell in love with it! It reminded me so much of my city back in the states (Orlando).

Did some snorkeling (first time for me) and the underwater scenery was amazing to say the least. Really wanted to try diving too but they wouldnt let me because I have high blood pressure Oh well..lol

I will say that I was a bit "overdressed" for the beach considering the most I saw generally, was a piece of thread...HAHA.

*Special Note to Monica*

Received your postcards and am red from embarrassment at my lack of manners in not thanking you for your thoughtfulness and in not forgetting me. You truly are a special person and if everyone could have just "one" friend, let that friend be someone as special as you are.

Salam for now

Girl, I thought you got amnesia there for a while...thank GOD you're well...

I was in Cairo last week and did not have your phone number...but don't feel bad, time was really tight... I managed to meet Debbie though, what a wonderful person she is by the way...and we even talked about the fact that YOU disappeared...

So happy you got my postcards from all over the place...you did say you wanted to start a collection at one point did'nt you, he he he?

WELCOME BACK LAURA!!!!
Applause Appplause Applause!!!

It's about TIME!!!! I missed the fauna and flora thread... and many other interesting threads you initiated...

Sharm/Orlando he he he ...never thought of that...but now that you mentioned it...well...some nuances yes...

Salam...
Monica

(blush) Thanks, Monica....YOU TOO! It was so nice to meet you and I only wish it could have been for longer. Next time dinner, ok? Maybe I'll even cook for you and your fella if you'll allow me.

Looking forward to it...
