About to embark at Manaus...

...and in possession of another hour on the net, I give you the headlines for the next section of my travelogue which I threaten to publish on March 8. (Well, the beginning at any rate.)

- Slumming it in Baroque Style: Salvador de Bahia
- The Hotel from Hell, or: air conditioning versus sleep - the eternal question
- How not to pick up a cute Frenchman: by being seasick all over him
- does one's carnival costume influence the way one tans (in stripes)?


And another thing: tonight are the Oscars. If [livejournal.com profile] cavendish or [livejournal.com profile] bimo read this in time, I'd be grateful for a recording.

I've never had much luck with Oscar recordings in the past, but I'll do my best to tape the ceremony!

Your travelogue headlines are making me curiouser and curiouser. I'm so much looking forward to reading your reports :-)

Thank you!

One last headline update, and then I will be able to write the real thing.

- How not to pick up a cute Frenchman: by being seasick all over him

Oh dear! I was hoping there are going to be photos of all the rest of your adventures but I think I'll pass on that one.

Sounds as if the travelogue is going to be an epic - The Selenassey.

did Odysseus skip that embarassing bit...

...with his men getting all drunk?

Also, where did you get that icon? We wants it too, precious!

I thought you might like the icon *g*. It's one by [livejournal.com profile] buffyx who has been making some seriously gorgeous icons recently. Be careful with icons until you've caught up with AtS though as some might be spoilery.

Didn't Odysseus's men get turned to swine at one point. Much more embarrassing than throwing up all over a Frenchman!
