I mean, I love following your travels, but I'm way more in favor of disconnecting. Surely the other annoying feature of modern traveling is the incessant photo-snapping. Earlier this summer, I spent a week hiking in Utah with my family. I think I was the only one in the family who heard the wind in the canyons or noticed cloud and terrain formations. My fellow travelers were too busy experience the moment through the lens of a camera. (Sidenote: my earlier comment contains an annoying mental lapse on my part: I typed "oxymoron" when what I mean was "redundancy." I blame it on menopause, but maybe, ack!, it's just the aging process....) Ah, well, in THAT case:

There’s always the info download time when you get back… when I can live vicariously through wonderful descriptions of precision brewed German beer!!

Jealous? Me? ;)

But this goes back to when I was discussing the merits of blogging the trip and you (Maureen) urged us not to. We are, but blogging always takes a back seat to <em>doing stuff.</em> That could be the case in Ulm. Maureen (and Steve),

That could be the case in Ulm.

My husband is in rural Cambodia at the moment (okay, probably an oxymoron) and about the first thing he saw when he stepped out of the hotel was, you guessed it, an internet cafe. So we're getting daily updates on his pilgrimages up and down Angkor Wat. By the way, I've truly enjoyed following your family's "slow" traveling this summer.
