Well you two, I had so many things to say...but now I am tired and overwhelmed ..by all the beautiful place you took me (well actually Joke) to, visual and sensual overload, wow! Sorry for cluttering your inbox. I am so thrilled for your wonderful trip and being able to see some of the most awesome places this beautiful country has to offer on your first trip over here. But most of all I am so happy and so moved that you to "found" eachother, it couldn't have happened to two more beautiful (inside and out) people! I got tears in my eyes as I write this. I give you lots of hugs and kisses, and belated happy birthday Joke!!! Sorry I got here so late, but you know I've been home in Germany for over 2 months and didn't get back until recently ...of course now I am really swamped with work and will crawl back into my hole to get boogieing...Cheers and hugs and a beautiful weekend.

Such a lovely album Joke. I had to come back again and sit here with my morning coffee and watch your California Dreamin' album on the slideshow. There is nothing more rewarding in life than to share love with someone so special that they simply live in our hearts every moment of every day. I am so very happy for the two of you and am looking forward to hearing just how this will unfold. Living a half a world apart is not such an easy thing, so I hope that you will keep us up to date. Sending love and warm wishes to the two of you. Hugs, Marjie

Je hebt het grootste deel van de Pacific kust van Californië bezocht en fantastische foto's gemaakt. Mijn nieuwgierigheid naar de volgende albums is al gewekt... Prettige zondag, Tjebbe

Hi Joke! Thank you for inviting me to view these beautiful images. I grew up in California, we went there for vacation two years ago and it was my first trip back since leaving in 1965. What a sight to see how much it had changed. You really had a great trip if you went from San Fransisco to San Diego. We didn't make it to SF on our trip but we did go to San Diego. Loved all your images, and I have only looked at the thumbnail versions. I was looking to see if you went to Coronado Island, there by San Diego. I will return when I have more time. Hugs, Susie

Thank you so much for dedicating this gorgeous album to me, liefste;) It's great to see California from the perspective of a Dutch girl on her first visit to America:) I'm so glad I was able to show you some of the beautiful places here in California! It was a pleasure having you as a guest in my home! I'm happy I was able to return the favor for your gracious hospitality when I stayed in your home in Holland! There is still more to see, so it will be great having you back in the future! I will be returning for some comments, and I look forward to seeing your individual albums for each of the places we visited! Dank u wel, mijn vriend! Johnny:)
