Pic1: Smart Roadster from the rear. Anyone see the RX8 or MR2 influence? Anyone seen this car before? It was selling for 7900 Sterling pounds (about 14000 US)
Pic2: Night time in Brussels, Belgium. This was our first night of our honeymoon. The sun had just set upon the Great Square...a very popular location for tourists and locals. Lots of pubs and places to eat. After taking this picture, I saw what time it was...it was about 1030 in the evening. The sun goes down very late there...and comes up early in the morning...around 400. This was very hard to get used to.
Pic3: Stonehenge. Very impressive. With the entrance fee, they gave you a little recorder that gave you history on the structure...the facts about where the stones came from. The wooden structure that proceeded the stone one, as well as some other suggestions on how it have have been erected. They don't know how they got the stones all the way down from the quarry sites in Wales. It is basically a huge calendar...with each of the arches taking the place for the month...having it line up with a large rock which is off to the side...lining up with the sun. Pretty cool to see it and be right there. I thought it was bigger than I had imagined it would be...while Erica thought it was actually smaller than what she thought it would be. Impressive either way...especially with the idea that the stones are actually much taller...as some of the stones are beneath the surface. They were buried in place, they are not actually sitting on the top of the grass.
Pic4: Brussels at sunset. Our second night...and getting ready for our first train ride.
Pic5: Train Station pic. This was on our way from Scotland to the Lake District. can you find me?

Pic1: This was taken in our second stop...Brugges, Belgium. A very romantic city set upon Canals. Considered the Venice of Europe. Why it is called this...well, I guess they want you to think that this is the only place in Europe like this. Well, we were taken back by it....very nice indeed. We ended up seeing many more canalled cities along our trip...but this was the first, and it was something to experience.
Pic2: I set the camera up on a bench...and ran over to Erica before the timer went off. I think this was the third attempt. I didn't make it in time for the first two...
More to share later....gonna go work on a RX8 skin.

Good to see you back Mr & Mrs Wescott. Looks like you guys had a good time.
SORRY guys I'm kind of late on the comment but I havn't been on for a while. Sherri is in Maui at their parents summer home. I have been talking to her though myspace. Below is one of the falls they went to for Sara's Birthday yesterday. Here I'll also post a comment she had wrote me back awhile ago.
July 20th From:Sherri
we just did some site seeing...swam in a hidden waterfall pool that only a few people know about (we were the only ones there for a long time)....then later jumped into a cave pool that leads to under water cave...again mostly locals know about. Plus a few other things...I think I'm going to finally go to bed. I'm going riding tomorrow so I need SOME sleep!
.................So there is a update on what she has been doing

about time
well i finally got my car back. and in true form they forgot to put something back.
but the piece they left off is on the sun roof and i don't mind that one at all.
it was the little built in wind deflector that stop the air from nose diving into the
car. i would rather have it flowing through the back so i can get more air. but i'm also sure that it's going to cause me some wind drag.. oh well at least i got my car back....

there's a TSB for the airbag light.
You talking about the little bar that pops up when the sunroof is open? If so, yeah they put it back in.

that bar may have been the reason it took so long for them to fix it.
outside of somebody not knowing what the heck they were doing..
but i think it will work out ok, since i get more air flowing into the car now..
i really need to do the water test to make sure it does not leak.
yeah with the light coming on was such a let down after getting my car back.
i put a lot of extra money in this car as has everyone else, but makes me start
looking at other cars now. maybe a suby, naw i'd be more like the lexus 250.
was looking at g35 since the infn. dealer is right next door to my store..
which reminds me looking for new hire preferably female, i need something to
get the guys buying more paint good prices just don't work all the time...

talk to Rodger about the air bag light. I know it was an issue on his car.
I'd still make them put that bar back on, just to be on the safe side.

幹他媽!
welcome back mr & mrs wescott & thanks for sharing all the cool pix. great to hear u guys had a fun time!
congrats on getting the car back & getting the ac fixed michael... personally, i'd go back and make them do the wind difusser correctly. and, if they don't know how, get all the parts and call either tustin mazda or to galpin mazda- ie a dealership that actually knows how to work on the sunroof on our cars. there's more than one way to skin a cat- and u can also ask them about the airbag while u're at it.
speaking of which, sometimes i'm not sure what's sharper- a porcupine or cesar's mouth... HAHAHAHAHAHA. (j/k) well, it's all in good fun, so i don't think anyone takes anything personally. <LOL> those were some cool screenshots of GT5 though
and, lastly- i have to bitch that i'm actually at freaking WORK today! >
<ugh> i need to find a new job that pays better & with less stress. (this makes two weekends in a row, goddamn it.)
hope every else is enjoying their sunday nonetheless.
gerry

ok this is my rant week about my car.
all the issue's with my car we just found one more.
browning did a great job on my car.
we were at the hospital today and katy pulled
down the sun visor well guess what they put them
back on backwards, the one on the driver side should
be on the passenger side and visa versa.. i'm tired.
how much for the used g35 in the window...
