Just a week back, we welcomed the new year. Today though, we are sharing with you our first newsletter issue for 2018. This is also the tenth and final year in which we will be issuing this quarterly newsletter.
Yes!
It has been almost a decade, and the fourth issue in October this year will mark our 40th newsletter. Wow. And to think it all started because one of you suggested that we ought to bring to life our travels from a time before blogging became the popular platform and IG an obsession for many. Cannot imagine having started this all these years ago and still having some of you as our faithful readers. Many thanks for your support.
So what has been happening recently?
For one thing we’ve survived. The desert that is. Phew! And we have been awed. It was definitely not a journey that we regret and when our journalogs are published you will surely understand. We are talking about our just concluded journey to Jordan and Israel.
Well we hope you had a wonderful December break too and are freshly rested for the start of yet another exciting year. Here’s our latest issue : The Long Journey Q1-2018. Time to get the engines started again as we roll back into a 9-5 mode.
Let’s all make it a good start to the year!
Sure enough, my Follow settings did not include email for your posts–that should be corrected now: I will watch to see if I receive any. I had actually been thinking that although you two were liking and commenting on my posts, you weren’t writing any of your own! Doh! 😛

Oh that’s good you’ve rectified it.
Well that happens with WP all the time. For a few days the reader was not working and we could not read any posts at all!

Phooey–that’s no good! 😛 I should have checked earlier, but I just assumed that you were taking a break from writing posts. It’s always dangerous to make assumptions!

A great read. Thank You. Looking forward to read details on your escapades in Thailand. Did I understand you right? Are you stopping your quarterly mag in oct. why?

Oh yes thanks. And we shall share that soon.
Unfortunately we intend to stop this newsletter as it duplicates with the content we have in the blog. So we are intending to just maintain it here from 2019 onwards.
