It must have been completely different then,less crowded and more green..<BR/><BR/>Thank you all for your comments!Aurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15241416429031240047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1959843624298954315.post-29859430179006767582007-11-25T18:37:00.000+00:002007-11-25T18:37:00.000+00:00I think that driver was your guardian angel, and h...I think that driver was your guardian angel, and he trusted you folks absolutely by giving YOU credit! :-)<BR/>Very nice story Aura. It reminds me to January 1958. Then we made a stop in Manila when we were on our way by plain to Biak, New Guinea. I realize that it's now almost 50 years ago.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06253241492499858483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1959843624298954315.post-29820069998805163482007-11-25T12:05:00.000+00:002007-11-25T12:05:00.000+00:00Adventure trip eh?
