The first meeting with Susan in NC.
we've had 2 year email and SKYPE
contact, she had no idea I was coming !!

She is such a lovely lovely friend !!

How Susan and I met.

we are both members of

www.crossstitchcrazy.yuku.com

after questions and answers, we started
emailing and later Skyping each other.
asking about our lives in our own
country, just womens talk.
My friend Dikkie and I made plans to
go on a 5 week trip through the States,
starting with a trip to Susan and Phil's
house.
but they didn't know I was coming, because
I had told her that Dikkie was going with Alex
her fiancee.
that was my first lie to her, after that I have
told her one lie after the other and Susan
(bless her) believed it all.
on the day we arrived at their house, I was
laying on the rear seat untill I thought it was
save to come out, Dikkie said hallo ,
Susan asked where Alex was.
I got out of the car and I heard a very loud
voice asking, IS THAT HENNY ?
(how did she see me so quickly ??)
Dikkie answered, I DON'T KNOW !!
an other lie er was born !!
we hugged and hugged and cried and
were so happy, we had 2 days with them
then carried on with our trip
the last 5 days we spent with Susan
and Phil again that was one of the high
lights of our holiday/vacation.
I'm looking forward to a 4 week stay
with them in Jan. 2010.
in fact, I get very excited when I think
about it.
they both are such lovely people !!

And then, suddenly there in New Orleans

asking me to sing with him, if he had
only known ........................!!!

hi there, i'm back from a fantastic 5 week holiday to the USA.
my friend and I hired a car at Raleigh (North Carolina) airport , travelled from there to Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, and back to North Carolina, where I met up we 3 internet friends,
Monica, with whom we stayed for one night,
Kristin my very dear friend from the www.Crossstitchcrazy.yuku.com
and Susan from the same board. what a pleassure to meet them, we did not stay with Kristin, her family is to big to have two guest as well,but she made us so welcome and she is so sweet, but there again, I did not expect anything else, we have (cyber) known each other for a long time ,we stayed with Susan for 5 nights, Susan and I have been (Cyber) friends for a long time too, Susan and her husband and Kristin have now become real friends.!!
Kristin and Susan didn't know I was coming,
their reaction was fantastic, only Kristin called me a STINKER !! but she meant it in a nice way (I think!)
I'll put some pictures on soon.
other highlights were,The Smokey mountains,
Graceland, the Natchez trail, the Swamps,
Meeting fantastic people, the beauty and cleanliness of the country,New Orleans,
Nashville, Charlestown, and the Vanille Capuccino coffee from Mc.Donalds,!!!
we got addicted to that.
etc. etc.
We did in total 5723 miles !!

and they were waiting for me when I got home

I bought for him.

    Dookie,
    I had a lovely Monday, My friend wanted to byu new furniture
    so we went out shopping all day !
    had lunch and were home at 4 pm.
    spend a lot of money, and really ,I didn't want to buy anything,
    but you know how it goes I suppose !!
    I'm absolutely knackered now (not a nice word is it , for a woman ?)
    but that's how I feel at the moment.
    so now it is feet up time.
    speak to you soon again.
    hugs
