Has Robin Wright (do I still use the Penn? I’m going to get used to not using it as it’s only a matter of time until she returns to her maiden name) always been so beautiful? Probably. Posted by Fresco247 in Cindy-Lynn's Travel Adventures | Sep 17, 2009

This was an interesting movie … much food for thought.
It’s been a box office hit and a hit with the critics at home in Egypt.

- Crossing Huron Lake...
this is what went on in my head as we're on the ferry across to Manitoulin Island.... with no land in sight.

The day started with draining the water out of the trailer, luckily nothing important got wet. Heading into the wind again the road made a bend after 10 minutes and I go the wind in the back, this was great. Posted by JoeFr in Across Canada | Sep 16, 2009

It’s hard to believe it’s been 20 years since Roger & Me.

In a word this movie was a good time. I have a feeling it will be a sleeper hit, and definitely popular with the young female crowd. Excellent music (I see a soundtrack will def Posted by Fresco247 in Cindy-Lynn's Travel Adventures | Sep 14, 2009

There comes a point at every film festival where I see a movie that just doesn't connect with me. Today I saw half of such a film – Agora.

I will admit it – I was trepidatious about seeing this movie. And not because of the content – because I read the book. And the book rocked my world (it’s one of the few books in rec Posted by Fresco247 in Cindy-Lynn's Travel Adventures | Sep 14, 2009
- GOOGLE BABY - My Thoughts
And for something a little different … a documentary called Google Baby.
This is a documentary with much food for thought I must say. It tells the story of international surrogacy in the age of globalization.

With our Bumbershoot 2009 pamphlet and our passport on hand, we headed to Seattle with Pat (trusted driver) and Sarah. I was really excited about seeing Jason Mraz live and Mark was excited to add another state to his “repertoire”. Posted by thanh13 in Bloggin' N Globetrottin' | Sep 10, 2009
