I didn't shop for shoes, but I did find a Rolex for $100allcat wrote:I had a friend that stopped at a place and tried on shoes in Honk Kong. They were a little tight and he was going to pass. The guy told him to come back in 2 hours. They got a pair of shoes made to fit like a glove in 2 hours.
The quality of the fakes here are amazing 
You are definitely winning this thread ... you must have a really interesting job (or at very least, your job takes you a lot of very interesting places!).JDoub wrote:Tokyo, Japan
I used to travel a lot. I started making sure I had at least a couple of days wherever I went, otherwise it was one steel tube to a hotel and back to another steel tube.Bay Area Cat wrote:You are definitely winning this thread ... you must have a really interesting job (or at very least, your job takes you a lot of very interesting places!).JDoub wrote:Tokyo, Japan

My wife read some stories about people wrecking on those bikes and was hesitant to do that, so we drove it instead.LongTimeCatFan wrote:Cledus wrote:Very nice.

Yep, then ride a bicycle down. You get to see some pretty amazing views as you pass through about 4 climate zones. The lavender and protea fields are amazing.
Yeah...

Yes, I started an interesting job about two years ago after 20+ years in the Electric & Gas Utility business. Working for Oracle, who started a Global vertical business in Gas, Electric, and Water, and needed thought leaders/strategists in this space. (MSU engineering education put to good use!) So I do get to travel the world meeting with utilities and speaking at conferences, and visiting implementation projects. It's the first travel job I've had and while I do love to travel, it takes a toll on the family.grizzh8r wrote:Probably a Delta Diamond Million-Miler by this point...Bay Area Cat wrote:You are definitely winning this thread ... you must have a really interesting job (or at very least, your job takes you a lot of very interesting places!).JDoub wrote:Tokyo, Japan

I haven't hit the million miler yet, only about 300K, and I'm only a Platinum skymiles status now, but should hit diamond this year. At least business class makes travel more tolerable! The new dreamliner (Boeing's VP in charge of that project was also an MSU grad and Society of Women Engineers leader) on the way to PDX from Tokyo was amazing -- laid down flat and slept 8 hours, which I never get to do being 6'2" 225!!
Everyone who has traveled for years on their job tells me it gets old. I'm sure it will, but after two years I still look forward to seeing new places, cultures, people, etc. I just wish I could take my wife/kids along more often!
Happy to win something, I guess, even if it is just a BN thread!
but did pick up the audio -- sounded like a solid win with some shenangins in the 4th
Gorgeous! Although my "magnetic" ball would likely get pulled into the water.standup wrote:7th tee Pebble.
I envy you. Greece is on the Bucket List, no doubt.
