I prefer the north things.

I come from that way, sort of, so nothing special for me.

Still plan to visit Valaam as soon as possible.

No time like the present.

Especially since our schedules are rapidly filling up.

Busy weekend for me. I will visit Valaam. Boat sails tomorrow, sleep, arrive in the Saturday morning. Then I walk around all day, return to boat, sleep, return to Piter early Sunday morning. When I return, I go straight to Pulkovo to fly to America..

I hear mobile phone service will work in Valaam, but I take my sat phone just for the case the mobile not catches signal.

Try to relax and not get sea sick. Me, the waves of Ladoga rocking the boat help me sleep.

If you can, try and get some Ginger Pills beforehand. They won't make you wonky like commercial medications will but will help settle your stomach ifnecessary.

And if you are not going to be moving about, acupuncture works well, but the location for the needle is precise - and about an inch deeper than most.

You seem to know much about settling stomaches...

I know a little about a lot of things.

I have taken a ship each time I have crossed the pacific ocean - twice during the monsoons.

Do you write about them in your little black notebook of poetry?

Ladoga is huge, but it is not the ocean.

Must have been quite a trip.

Smartass.

Natasha · Post by **Natasha** » Thu Mar 08, 2007 2:02 pm

I think that I will be alright.

I talked to some pilgrims that made the trip severals for now

But thanks for the suggestions

You're welcome. Now go tell Kolya to behave before I take away his Vodka. :lol:

Natasha · Post by **Natasha** » Thu Mar 08, 2007 2:05 pm

You think he must drink to be a fool? :twisted:

Bert_the_Turtle · Post by **Bert_the_Turtle** » Thu Mar 08, 2007 2:06 pm

No, but I know it'd make him suffer :lol:

Kolya · Post by **Kolya** » Thu Mar 08, 2007 2:10 pm

If you want me to suffer, why don't you just read me a poem, Bert?

But seriously, I think it is cool what you do.

Natasha · Post by **Natasha** » Thu Mar 08, 2007 2:16 pm

Grrr.

Kolya · Post by **Kolya** » Thu Mar 08, 2007 2:18 pm

I tease because I care.

Can get out of hand, I guess.

Anyway, break time is over. Back to work.

Bert_the_Turtle · Post by **Bert_the_Turtle** » Thu Mar 08, 2007 2:39 pm

I make one reference to waxing poetic and this is what I get. *grumbles* :lol:

Kolya · Post by **Kolya** » Thu Mar 08, 2007 3:04 pm

Just cannot let anything die, can I?

Bert_the_Turtle · Post by **Bert_the_Turtle** » Thu Mar 08, 2007 3:12 pm

Nope, hahaha.

I had hoped I wouldn't need to bring this up, but, take this!

Bert_the_Turtle · Post by **Bert_the_Turtle** » Thu Mar 08, 2007 3:49 pm

I do my best. :twisted:

I hoped so, too.

You are the one in green, right?

Bye!
