I don't think this one is very hard either....

Seems rather sad that people cant just let others enjoy their fun - without stealing and without derogatory comments. If I wasnt into doing it, I wouldnt - but I cant imagine being so bothered or 'visually irritated' by others doing so.

For myself I often buy a coffee cup of places I go to - usually just one of a whole trip, not every place on the trip. Something I use at home, not dust collecting, and I like having a range of coffee cups reminicsent of my travels. Sometimes christmas ornaments from craft markets Other than that, I sometimes buy little things for the grandkids - tshirts, little toys - eg in Budapest market I bought those little wooden nesting dolls Sometimes I buy a tshirt for myself.

ooh I know this one. Its the tin camel roundabout, Norseman WA

Warwick castle?

Stirling castle, Scotland?

Hever castle?

Versailles?

Marshall Bay?

Strahan?

Ive only been on one Europe river cruise We knew the itinerary we wanted - Amsterdam to Budapest. This is the most popular Europe river cruise for Australians. We went with Scenic. My reasons for picking them - from Australia the 2 all inclusive lines were Scenic and APY (I think this is AMA elsewhere) They also include air fares They are totally all inclusive They had no 'stay on boat all day ' days. The itinerary was not much different from other lines - only a few minor differences, unlikely to be anyone's deal breakers. Cost between APT and Scenic very similar - the deal breaker in the end was just timing ie the dates just bit better for us.

Thread is getting silly. Of course like most movements there are some extremists - but to label all vegetarians or vegans or non anything eaters as being part of that and to bring it up in a cruise discussion completely unrelated to any movements - harsh and unneccesary The vast majority of vegetarians are not like that just because a few are, just like the vast majority of meat eaters are not aggressive and unaccepting of vegetarians just because a few are.

Guizhou, China?

Is it one of the caves on Halong Bay Islands?

I think it is Wilson's Promontory, Victoria.

Bruny Island is correct.

thank you Cruiser, I will try that o n my next turn - this isnt the photo I was originally going to upload but that one failed to upload so we have this. Yes somewhere in Tasmania.......

Some photos I try to upload fail and says error 200 - does anyone know what this means and how to correct?

I dont think this one is too hard.....

Oh well that's you. Like I said , to each their own. I am quite happy dining with a group - that is sort of the point of group tours - they might not be for everyone (what style of holiday is?) but I enjoy them and was quite happy with the food quality on ones we went on

Yes that took some getting. Am at work now, will find a photo when I get home.

That looks really nice. ETA - the soup photo. Only thing we had to pay for on WW was drinks and they were VERY reasonably priced. You could even not do that if you wished, as water jugs and pots of tea were supplied at all meals.
