Any idea what is in the package above? I will guess the heart of a saint?
ReplyDeleteEver seen a dead saint in a glass box? Have you met my ex?
What is the strangest mode of transportation you have ever experienced while
traveling? Probably a boat on a canal in Amsterdam.
What is the oldest building you have visited? I would guess one of the many cathedrals in either Buenos Aires, or in Vienna. A lot of them dated back t0 the 1700's I would have to check to see the oldest. One in Beunoa Aires dated back to the late 1600's.
Where was the worst hotel you have ever stayed in? (no names to protect the guilty and avoid libel.) A major HUGE DUMP in Durham. A very well known chain. I was beyond shocked and still getting therapy.
Good to think of your ex as a saint, most people have vile thoughts of their exes.
Delete1 - a torture device
ReplyDelete2 - no, but we have one in philly (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Neumann#/media/File:Altar_of_St._John_Neumann.JPG)
3 - new orleans horse drawn carriage, or the nachez paddlewheel steamer (https://www.steamboatnatchez.com)
4 - the colosseum in rome; in philly, it's independence hall (https://www.nps.gov/inde/index.htm)
5 - the falls motel, watkins glen NY, on honeymoon with ex-husband, 1982
Re #5, was it the motel, or the ex that was worse?
Deletethe motel; the ex got worse in the following years til I divorced his controlling/paranoid ass in 1991.
DeleteAny idea what is in the package above? Supposedly, the heart of St. Laurence O'Toole. (I just impressed myself with this one!)
ReplyDeleteEver seen a dead saint in a glass box? Yep, SG's 22-greats grandfather, Ferdinand III, in Sevilla.
What is the strangest mode of transportation you have ever experienced while traveling? Pedal carriage in Maria Luisa Park (again, in Sevilla).
What is the oldest building you have visited? And back to Sevilla, at the Antiquarium, homes and other structures from the 1st Century BC. At least I THINK those are the oldest.
Where was the worst hotel you have ever stayed in? (no names to protect the guilty and avoid libel.) A resort in Palm Springs. Filthy, delapidated, appalling. And advertised as campus-like grounds with individual private villas. I can't begin to tell you how vile it was.
You are good, very good. I had to google it, my information was not that specific.
DeleteAny idea what is in the package above? Sacrementak wine. I'm always hoping there's more wine.
ReplyDeleteEver seen a dead saint in a glass box? No, but I once saw a real "live: Bigfoot at a County Fair.
What is the strangest mode of transportation you have ever experienced while traveling? Paddle-boating in Hawaii.
What is the oldest building you have visited? London. All of it.
Where was the worst hotel you have ever stayed in? (no names to protect the guilty and avoid libel.) A place in Key West. Looked gorgeous on the outside, right on the water, a party dock, but inside it was, well, let's just say it was like a chemistry experiment with all the, um, bodily fluids. We left and went to big Ruby's, which is sadly now closed.
I need to go to Key West, something to look forward to.
DeleteI think that is a chastity belt over a you-know-what - very old.
ReplyDeleteIt would be efficient
Delete1. An old conservative heart. They ran out of stakes, hence the cage.
ReplyDelete2. Nope, and I never will. I don't count that thing Madonna was laying in in Evita, because saint.
3. Mode of transportation: One of those boats that look like they have a fan on the back, while in Florida. We visited gators.
4. Probably a mission or two in San Diego. We visited BH's grandmother's house in Alsip Ill. in 1976. It was over a hundred years old with a well, no running water and a chemical toilet. That was an adventure!
5. We almost stayed at a cheesy motel in L.A. once, but it turned out to be one of those rent by the hour things. Even I have some standards! The last day of our honeymoon, we stayed at a hotel in San Diego as a joke. We always saw it off of the freeway and joked about going there for a night of sleasy fun. It was sleazy all right. Fun? Not so much, but we survived without needing shots.
Airboats are kind of fun, and kind of terrifying.
Delete1. No idea.
ReplyDelete2. Was Ho Chi Minh a saint? Probably not for everyone.
3. A train with rubber tyres in Japan.
4. Maybe Durham Cathedral or perhaps a church in Europe.
5. A hotel in Paddington, London, fit only for storing brooms. We had the room changed the next day.
The joys of tiny hotel rooms.
DeleteAny idea what is in the package above? dear me no it looks like I would prefer not knowing.
ReplyDeleteEver seen a dead saint in a glass box? oh sure lots of them.
What is the strangest mode of transportation you have ever experienced while traveling? Eastern Airlines may it rest in peace.
What is the oldest building you have visited? A cave near Stonehenge in England.
Where was the worst hotel you have ever stayed in? (no names to protect the guilty and avoid libel.) A seedy joint in Boston oh the horror.
Mitchell actually posted the correct answer to #1. I was changing planes in Atlanta the night Eastern Airlines quit flying, I was on Delta/KLM headed to Amsterdam.
