Travel Light

Travel light.
Bring a bite.
And a toothbrush.

Wired for sound
when off the ground.
And factor fifty.

Itsy bitsy teenie weenie
yellow polka dot bikini.
And a towel.

Will pick you up.
Have a cup.
And hit the beach.

In the desert I wear shorts//for all my manly sports//like drinking beer//while chewing ear//reminiscing of cavorts. uh oh, I'm getting carried away! I hope I see no bikinis here in the land of prunes;-)

What can I say? You're so far away. Fancy trading places for a day?

I remember how popular that bikini song was. Everyone sang along when it played on the radio. I enjoyed your fun light entry Jean. ; )

If only it wasn't Scotland I'm heading to this weekend Jo. Too cold even for a kilt I fear.
