Got your comment about Hydropolis hotel cancellation -- I am still getting conflicting messages about whether it is a go or not. Either way, I will keep it up and maybe edit the text a bit...the concept alone as just too good.Pearl of Dubaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07663923875460348960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18927845.post-19419457538989638612007-04-04T08:08:00.000+02:002007-04-04T08:08:00.000+02:00What, what - you are in Melbourne!!!!

Make it special.<BR/><BR/>One good thing about Hawaii, which was passed down from the old days, is that all beaches are public and hotels must provide access paths and parking. <BR/><BR/>I liked my visit to Melbourne (way back in 1991). K taught Japanese out at Ballarat for 6 months in 1996 and enjoyed it as well. <BR/><BR/>Wow, that's some market. I could get fat there. :DPandaboniumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352197350806179930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18927845.post-47765793648675523472007-04-03T07:01:00.000+02:002007-04-03T07:01:00.000+02:00Happy Birthday J!
