Even the Computer Challenged Can Blog

How exciting! My first Blog. And thank you for joining me. Hopefully I can hold your interest enough for you to join me on my trip "Around the World." Just to bring everyone up to date, I recently cashed in 140,000 frequent flyer miles for Delta's "Trip Around the World" package. (And yes I do have tickets in hand). The package includes 6 stops in one direction anywhere in the world. I picked countries I've never visited before; Peru, Egypt, Kenya, Tanzania, Madagascar (and the lemurs), Russia, India, Bhutan (my personal favorite), China, and Tibet. Please please send me any advice on traveling in these countries and I will try to share the adventure as it unfolds as well as photos. Because I am using frequent flyer miles, no travel agency will help, so I am doing everything via the internet. It has been a wild ride, but great fun. My dream is that this adventure will somehow turn into a career for me (travel writing? travel agent? porter? chamber maid?). The trip itself begins Aug 22 but in the meantime, it's all one great learning experience. Big Hugs from RamblinMe aka Marion, Goddess of Travel
