I got a digital camera, as I was still in the 35mm phase...gift certs, clothes, mitts/toque/scarf, and what I think is the greatest book, The Travel Book put out by Lonely Planet that features pictures/info on every country in the world.

"Do we really want to travel in hermetically sealed popemobiles through the rural provinces of France, Mexico and the Far East, eating only in Hard Rock Cafes and McDonalds? Or do we want to eat without fear, tearing into the local stew, the humble taqueria's mystery meat, the sincerely offered gift of a lightly grilled fish head? I know what I want. I want it all. I want to try everything once."

-- I got the book awhile back and wasn't too impressed. Too many first class hotels and such on there...like a hotel is a destination you must "see before you die...!"

Still, it's a good reference book to have around...you know, make sure you're not missing something when you're heading to a particular country!

Enjoy, Ev!
