I hope he gets better soon and that you take care of yourself as well. Maybe you'll get some reading done while you are waiting in the hospital. Best wishes for both of you.

Susan A | 461 comments We definitely have the letters covered with the books that have been posted in the baggage tab. All players will have at least one book in the spelling.

Do you want me to fill it out and we can move on to the next stop? The next stop is Boa Vista (BR). Detour is: Read a book where the ISBN10 number has exactly 6 odd numbers

I can do either the spellout or the detour.

message 237: by Melissa (ladybug) (new)

Melissa (ladybug) | 1048 comments Just waiting for Irene and Roger to read books for the detour. :) The next stop is Boa Vista (BR) - Dakar, Senegal.

Our choices are:
1) Spell-it-out (Will need to spell either Senegal or Dakar, Senegal so that everyone can join in)
2) Detour: Read a book with Twins
3) Book set in that country or by an author of that country

I personally vote for spell it out of Senegal, but I could also find a book with twins if that is the choice. :)


message 238: by Jarvis (new)

Jarvis Four books are finished for the Detour, so I guess we can move on..?

I too vote for spell it out!
