I have written about my travels, sort of. I wrote a novel about a middle aged divorcee stranded in California who employs a young man to teach her to drive her ex-husband's classic Jaguar convertible. As they travel across the country she learns about freedom and love.

Around the world was spectacular. Left from the East Coast where one daughter was in college and came back to the West coast where the other was being a hippie. I once went on a cruise and it was okay, but the confinement was kind of nerve wracking for me.

I had never compared Paris with the rest of France, but you're right. I still liked the rotten Parisians best though. They made me laugh.

I have visited most of the tribes you mentioned, but I am Cherokee. The Cherokees have integrated with the European so much that our settlements are almost indistinguishable. We are united by our history.

I liked Japan a lot. Went to a Budhist Temple and a tea ceremony in the most beautiful garden I've ever seen. Never made it to Greece. It sounds great though.

I once drove along the U.S.-Mexico border. Boy that was exciting. Weird sceneryt and men with Uzis everywhere. Whew....

You're making me want to travel again. Gotta' get your book.
