haha My english is far from perfect. I'm going to return to the US unable to speak any language at all.

And, jackie chan isn't Tibetan. Long hair and a tan Brad can play a Tibetan. Plus, he is HOT and Jackie Chan isn't, and since Nikki & I would have to star in it ourselves, we'd prefer Brad.

And, I re-edited the Leshan report because of your comment, other than spelling was there anything else wrong?

thanks,
Veronica

Uhh, right not writer but explorer. Hmm, thats a little embarassing. I'll accept best female explorer though. ;-)

Rudi,

I think saying I'm the top female report writer is a bit, umm exaggerating because I'm not that good it reports, i'm just good at telling stories.

And, not to rub my own ego but i feel like this particular adventure should be turned into a movie. I mean, think of it, a tibetan nomad, two american girs who want to run away with him...

I think if we could cast Brad Pitt as the tibetan, and Nikki & I of course would have to play ourselves, we would have a box office hit... right?

Thanks for the congrats on MOM in my guestbook too. You've been incredibly helpful, so thanks!

Thanks Rudi
I guess we all go a bit over the top at times. I know I do.
I'm sure we will both put up many more pics over time that will get excellent, good, bad and terrible ratings - as we have done in the past.
I do totally agree that we need more people to rate. Sometimes I have thought a photo [not mine] underrated at 1* and have even given 4* in one such case. I can only think of one explanation for that raising the overall grading to 3*.
Best Wishes, David

Hi Rudi
People are entitled to different opinions and I often find your critical comments constructive and helpful.
However there is no place on this site for attacking somebody's character without proof.
I asked you to explain your comment 'Hope I we can continue trusting your contributions.....' It’s blatant rudeness to question my integrity and you put a heading that would draw attention to this public message.
Your ‘explanation’ beggars belief. ‘I just thought you new/saw the effect and could explain it!’
Gee, thanks. Perhaps you don’t see why I should find that offensive. I do realise that English is not your first language, although your command of it normally impresses me. Take it from me, it is offensive to suggest that I knowingly keep a ghost to boost my gradings and that I have something I need to ‘explain’ about them.
Looking carefully at my gradings, I don’t believe the ghost exists but if it/he/she does, I repeat that I am not aware of it/him/her.

Hi Rudi,
Thanks for the nice comment on my Kochi report and also for rating it. I am glad that you enjoyed it. Promoting Kerala is the only reason I am here at Globo and I've decided not to write about the other several holidays I had over the years in the UK and Europe. When I took the decision to move base to Kerala, I was opening a new page in my life and I never regretted it. Finding good friends like yourself here at Globo really gives me all the encouragement I need. Carry on with your sterling work here at Globo. For my part I was away from Globo sorting out some personal problems for a few months and am glad to say that I am back now ready to write more reports. Once again thanks for your support. Take care,
Cheers,
Kris

Hi Rudi
If I have a ghost, I'm not aware of it. I shouldn't mnid haunting a few people - but only when I'm dead.
I've certainly not noticed a lot of 5* either, although I have pages of 4*, which I don't regard as bad.
If I have got a ghost, I wish it would vsit the ones graded as 1* and at least tell me why.
I welcome constructive criticism and I shall be interested in your more detailed remarks.
I'm less certain about your last sentence, though. What is it supposed to mean?
Cheers
David

I just opened my mailbox and surprised with the email from Globo, I think I should prepare albums as many as possible:)
I wish having a counter for albums, I m wondering how many people watched the slides, take care..
