Guess who?

I won't tell you where we are - have to keep some of the mystery, after all, but we're back in the correct hemisphere, and should be home within a couple of days.

I have a number of pictures. Specifically, a large number of turtle pictures. (That should be enough to tell you one of the places we've been.)

A place with turtles.

[x-cyclops.livejournal.com]

A place with very large turtles!

[x-foliate.livejournal.com]

You realise there are 28 zoos in New York alone.

[x-cyclops.livejournal.com]

Yes, but this way we got to see them in their natural habitats. As well as all sorts of other interesting wildlife that doesn't live naturally anywhere else.

[x-foliate.livejournal.com]

Hope you had fun.

[x-cyclops.livejournal.com]

We did, actually.

[x-legion.livejournal.com]

Good to hear from you. I was starting to worry.

So you haven't been attacked by ninja-cultists? Just the turtles? ...you don't mean zombie turtles or something, right?

[x-crowdofone.livejournal.com]

Man, you've been living here too long already. :)

Be good to see you two back, Mr. Summers.

See, and I'm suddenly curious. Do you get tan, or just high? :)

[x-rahne.livejournal.com]

Yes, it will.

And. Er. We checked on the full-spectrum lightbulbs. There are ones that would fit the light fixtures in your office. Or suite. (Lower-UV for the suite?) Do you want them?

[x-cyclops.livejournal.com]

... lightbulbs. Huh. I see where you're going with this...

Maybe just stick to the office for now? I'm not sure Jean wants to be exposed to that much UV. Huh. Things I should have done ages ago, though... thank you, Rahne.

[x-rahne.livejournal.com]

Aye, I'd been testing a bit to see whether I could sit under them without burning, but there's the whole long-term question too, so I was n

Filters! I just found filters. I was starting to think I'd have to ask Forge if he could make them, but somebody already did. They claim they'll block UV without cutting the rest of the spectrum. Much, anyway. So if you want to try in the suite, maybe those would work.

Unless UV's the critical part for you. No idea.

[x-cyclops.livejournal.com]

I don't tan at all. Just high.

I have decided that I rather like the equator.

[x-crowdofone.livejournal.com]

See, and now I'm picturing an intervention, or something. "You can come north of the Tropic of Cancer! We believe in you!"

[x-cyclops.livejournal.com]

I'd never make it in Alaska with the seasonal lack of sun...

[x-crowdofone.livejournal.com]

Great place to vacation during the other half the year, though.

[x-cyclops.livejournal.com]

No, they're very nice turtles. We weren't allowed to get too up close and personal with them, but I've got some great pictures.

[x-siryn.livejournal.com]

YOU'RE BACK!!

Brace yourself. :D

[x-cyclops.livejournal.com]

I'm not back just yet, you know. Still a continent away. (Oh, there I go with the hinting.)

[x-siryn.livejournal.com]

*impatient*

[x-cyclops.livejournal.com]

Couple more days, I promise.

[x-forge.livejournal.com]

(That should be enough to tell you one of the places we've been.)

New Jersey?

[x-cyclops.livejournal.com]

Funny man.

[x-polarisstar.livejournal.com]

Did these turtles have a peculiar affection for pizza and surfing?

[x-cyclops.livejournal.com]

Well, we may have stopped in to visit a turtle by that description for a couple of days, yes. We were on our way to visit my very non-turtle-like grandparents, so.

[x-polarisstar.livejournal.com]

...not actually what I meant.

How is he?

[x-cyclops.livejournal.com]

He's good, Lorna.

And oh - I missed a pop culture reference, didn't I? Drat.

[x-polarisstar.livejournal.com]

No, my fault for trying to be clever.

Thanks. Tell your grandparents I said hello.

[x-cyclops.livejournal.com]

I will.

I have to drop their plane back off, after all.

[x-traction.livejournal.com]

I can't wait till you are both back! Though I'm glad you finally took a vacation, you've been missed.
