If you come here to Des Moines please email me as I would love a chance to talk to someone from Bahrain as I doubt I will get the chance to go back. Yes the Heartland of the country is great. We are much different from the coast cities but with our own unique charm.

About the State Fair..I enjoy going one day each year..mostly to eat all the food. Corndogs included Steve.

You know Steve, I’ve been to the four corners of the States but never in its central heartland. I should think that would be a very enjoyable experience too and that is on my eternal list to-do.

Well, I would have suggested Des Moines, Iowa, USA but the Iowa State Fair is over. You just missed a corndogging, funny-car-racing, funnel-cake-eating, carnival-riding, cow-judging, hog-calling good time. Hoooooweeee! One time they had a sideshow with REAL SPACE ALIENS, one buck. Turns out they were just fish gutted and turned inside out, but then maybe that’s how the aliens disguise themselves.

South Africa is on the list of “things to do before I die” so rest assured that given another chance that I shall visit.

Well, enjoy Italy but of course I’m disappointed you didn’t think of Cape Town! We have BEAUTIFUL gardens, excellent accommodation, nature, museums, art galleries, beaches, restaurants…what more could you ask for? Maybe next time?

Thanks Insana, and everyone for your suggestions.

In the end, the consensus in the household over-ruled my Eastern adventure in favour of gondolas, ice cream, a big lake and some fashion shopping.

So the tickets have been booked to Milan where we will pick up a car and drive to Sirmione on the shores of Lake Garda to enjoy and relax for a week.

Buon giorno!

Mahmood…
If you are considering Thailand, then PHUKET should be your destination. My last visit to Thailand was in May 2008, stayed at the JW Marriott Phuket Beach Club. 5 stars resort, excellent for children. You will really enjoy it…

Great Food, Great Night life, Lovely sandy beaches………

Just Pack & Go
