If you have any questions about where we are and what the heck we are doing at the moment this is now the best way to find out. Post your question here. If you have any good advice for a destination of whatever this is a good spot to write as well. |

Kathy,Rika, Shogo and I are on our way to Mexico today. We should be there for two to three weeks and then come on back to Austin Texas for some more play station. We keep updating here. If anyone has been to Mexico give us some tips. http://www.tansaku.com/doug It's not a Website...It's a state of mind |

We have just arrived in Zacatecas and it is a super cool little city with cobble-stone streets that accomadate donkeys more than VW vans. Parked the car and are staying at great hostel that has a terrace that we are going to overtake and drink beer in to the wee hours of the morning. The van has a prob... overheating over 3000 rpms so travel is slow. We stayed in a bonified ghost town last night and to get the we had to drive on the longest cobble-stone road in the world and then drive through a 3 km tunnel that emptied into this lost city in the mountains. We hiked around all the mountains, aquired wonderful sunburns and consumed beet to console our aching bodies. All is good. This is still the best way for us to communicate. Email is down for some reason. Later. http://www.hostels-zacatecas.com/ This is the website for the hostel we are staying at. |

In that little ghost town, go to the center of town (where the church is). Go 1/2 block north and on the left there is a grocery store. They have a computer there and you can check out your website! Just say "donde esta la putadora?" Can't wait to hear from you guys! I got the map revealer on Ratchet and Clank. Ha! |

Piles and Piles have happened since last we spoke and time is of course limited so I will be brief and try again later. Mexico is over and was a blast... Mardi Gras is over and was a blast... Bike week in Daytona is over and was a blast... The Kenedy Space Center is over and was a blast off ... (Delta 4 Launch) and now we are in Key west and contemplating becoming bonified street venders and entering the general alround bum category. They said that we would get our "homeless card" in the mail but we didn't have an address to give them. some People worthy of Mention hear: Jesse and Aidan: danka for the hospitality and the sake; Kathy Chan: thanks for the dance in Mexico; Jason and Michelle: show us your tits (it is perfectly OK to say that since we met them at Mardi Gras). http://www.tansaku.com/doug |

I forgot the minor players along the way... a big good luck to "Who'd Marry Larry": looking for lost wife (and car and jewelary and money) of 8 days... what are you going to do when you find her? and more later http://www.tansaku.com/doug |
