many places and you might
find it cheaper in the ‘long

she’d have to be very
discreet- and. keep her

like a plot fora novel!

With our ‘Canadian ¢ dollar
in such terrible shape, I
think we should think about —
_.North American vacations |
for a while.

Be sure to consult with
both-a lawyer and the courts
to be sure you have all the.

documents to take
the child out of the country.
I can’t emphasize “this
strongly enough. You ‘could
get yourself in a helluva mess
if some country demanded
proof. of custody and you
didn’t have it handy. If you

BRIAN AND SHARON WILSON and their sons recall their adventures “stamping around Alberta” last summer.
The Wilsons participated at the outset of the campaign and collected all fourteen provincial zone stamps by October _

DEAR BARBARA: I read in
horror that you wanted to go
to Haiti, We did it-and
never, never again. The
whole vacation was a
disaster. Our hotel(s) were
awful - and we switched
three times. Bugs? By the
millions, The food varied
from adequate to ghastly.

We both got sick and the
doctor, when he came a day
later, couldn't have cared
