Hi Gloria,
it was a fascinating journey. I stayed 14 days with a family in Mumbai and 14 days with another family in Delhi. Both families were friendly and observing. Mumbai was easier than Delhi. I think the reason was that it is situated along the sea. I liked the town, specially the British quarter and the night markets. Delhi was overwhelming, not only the sights I have seen but the people I saw and those I met. My family took me around to see their friends and their family. I went to Agra and Jaipur. The beauty of what I saw came to my heart.
The Delhi family invited me to the wedding of one of their sons. So I will go their late this year and plan to go either to Rajastan or Kerala. In June I will be off to Kyrgistan. And in March I have been to Harlingen, Terschelling, and Franeker in the Netherlands. I wrote a report about Harlingen, so you can read what it lookslike.
I love to travel and once in awhile I have to leave my country to love it again.
So long, take care.

Thanks for looking at my Valley of Fire album. It is an incrdible place. I was traveling with my niece and her 6-year old son, and they weren't interested in hiking back into the canyons. I was limited to areas where we could park the car. It's not my favorite way to explore, but at least I got to see the place, and plan to return soon.
I am moving to Las Vegas in June, the beginning of the temperatures in the 100's, so I'll probably wait until Fall, before I do any desert hiking. I will be within a days drive of Lake Mead, Hoover Dam, the Grand Canyon, the beautiful national parks in southern Utah, and the Anasazi ruins at Mesa Verde.

It is a pity to see a "phantom" ratings around again. Whoever rates your reports just * or ** is not a true traveller and neither a good community member. Ratings and awards are very important, just remember that after about six to ten honest ratings, the error disappears.
"THEME: costumes" is planned. I already have 25 pictures but didn't know if I should do "masks" (18 of those pics) separately? Do you think we could included masks and painted faces like

or should faces be separate? I think so now, the interest, specially for women in fashion, design and materials is here at GLOBO. I'll work on it!

I have only got Photoshop Elements, a shortened version, and only just started using it. Maybe my version has the photostitch feature as well.

Gloria,
In this case, I am the Mama and that is my daughter! She traveled with her dance group for 3 weeks through Greece in 2003. That costume took me a year to complete, and 22 cones of gold thread. It is one of 5 she has. My sons each have two or three as well all with lots of handwork but I enjoy doing them!
