Haven't traveled by air for awhile. Will be going from Albuquerque to Seattle, probably with SW Airlines, not sure. Is wearing an underwire bra a problem during the security screening process?

I am planning a trip to Panama by car hitting Mexico City, maybe Cancun, Costa Rica, etc. using the Pan American Highway.

Has anybody done this

If this part sounds interesting, check-out Bella Coola BC on YouTube.com -

Then when my Wilderness Rainforest River Cabin is finished, and if you can follow all bear rules you may email me - mrabb@suddenlink.net to see if you are approved. Cabin is accessed by "only" floating down the Bella Coola River. Very basic & unfinished. Pacific salmon runs the river. However- with the Sept. 24, 2010 flood there, and my care-takers have not yet been to check on it, cabin may need total replacement. All the photos of cabin & maps on my Facebook if you email for my name, & want to add me as your friend to see info. Actually I live 3K miles from Bella Coola. Yes---I know, and I have to drive it.

My girlfriend and I are wanting to visit England in the spring. As this is our first trip there,we feel that we need a guide or guided tour. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Royce

Going to Hawaii and need a clean moderate hotel for 1 night in Waikiki. Do you have any recommendations for moderately priced restaurants in Waikiki or Oahu? Any other Hawaii tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks alot.

Just browsing through my groups and noticed that this group doesn't seem to be communicating??????/

Probably most of us are in other groups and may be talking there but I wondered what's going on with this one.

If you are out there:

Did you travel for the holidays

Where are you planning on going this year? Any plans

What is your favorite place - Mine's Paris for city and Italy for country

Let's revive this group and get it talking.

Happy New Year

Does anyone have a list of excellent destinations for people who like to go places in the 'Buff" Looking for travel companions that have been there,done that.

Just returned from my third trip this year to Croatia. Most of my time was spent setting up and escorting an active 14 passenger cruise trip along through the island of Dalmatia, however, finally was able to hit Istria this September.

Truffles, olives, grapes, figs, hill towns, coastal fishing villages....I loved it.

See the review on my blog!
