A Traveller's 10 Commandments
Apparently the ten of the wisest commandments ever commended to travellers.
  1. Though shalt not expect to find things as thou hast them at home, for thou hast left home to find different things.
  2. Those shalt not take anything TOO seriously, for a care-free mind is the beginning of a fine holiday.
  3. Thou shalt not let other tourists get on thy nerves, for thou art paying out good money to enjoy thyself.
  4. Remember to take only half the clothes thou thinks thou needs – and twice the money.
  5. Know at all times where thy passport is, for a person without a passport is a person without a country.
  6. Remember that if we had been expected to stay in one place, we would have been created with roots.
  7. Thou shalt not worry, for that he that worrieth hath no pleasure – few things are ever fatal.
  8. When in Rome, thou shalt be prepared to do somewhat as the Romans do.
  9. Thou shalt not judge the people of a country by the one person who hast given thee trouble.
  10. Remember that thou art a guest in a foreign land, and he that treateth his host with respect shall be honored.
... with these sentiments I hope we travel the next 6 weeks :-)
