Well guys now you’ve done it. We’ll have to go to each of these countries to utilize your guide. Thanks. Continued happy travels.
Many thanks for sharing your global adventures with so many “armchair travelers” at home. We have loved both the narratives and photos of each of the places you have visited. Your list is impressive. Stay well, be safe and keep traveling! Cheers to you both.
