Thanks for the new addition
A Kenyan in My Wife - Chapter 2
By Kyng Kooba - March 2010
I sat alone in the café, a cup of coffee untouched in front of me and a British paper open at the second page. Over by the reception my daughter Poppy was making use of the play area. Blissfully unaware that just two floors above us in our hotel room, her mother Kirsten was with a black barman called Eddy. It was our second week in Kenya and my wifes first time with another man in our eight years of marriage. Needless to say, my mind was not on the paper. My Kirsten; conservative, catholic and now a plaything for black cock. The desperate situation still bounced around my brain. This is what I had wanted. Perhaps even forced her into yet I still could not believe she had gone through with it. I was in shock. All had been my doing. My instigation. The affair Id had with one of her closest friends alone hadnt pushed her to it. Kirsten wasnt doing this to get back at me. She was doing it because she felt it was what I wanted.
Almost an hour and a half past. Horror, abandon, intrigue and erotic tension gushed through my mindset. I wondered if I should return but remembered their final words to me. Come back in a few hours. I imagine this stud will have finished with me by then. I did not want to interrupt what I was sure would be a life-changing event. Eddy had certainly had his share of white pussy. The women, tourists that I had seen hanging around and flirting with him at his beachfront bar were testament to that. Still, the satisfaction in his eyes of fucking a new wife was just as potent for him. As I waited time seemed to move slowly, my mind filled with all kinds of twisted visions. This was unbearable. By 10:30 Poppy was looking tired and ready for bed. Her room was joined onto ours but Id made sure before leaving that the door between them was locked. I led my daughter up in the lift and as we turned along the red, carpeted corridor towards us came Eddy. He had a casual, satisfied look about him. Still tucking his shirt into his pants with post-sex sweat on his brow that gleamed through his thinning grey hair. He nodded to me, a knowing look and flashed his trademark smile. A gleaming row of white teeth. How many western ladies had fallen for that one? It was only Monday. We had another week left in Malindi and he was not done with us. Not by far.
Kirsten was in the shower and after I put Poppy to bed I leant on the dresser and watched her dry her hair. For a woman who had just been through an intense black fucking with a man shed only just met she looked composed. At least on the outside. We had been married eight years but in that moment I felt my feelings towards her change. Perhaps before I had taken her for granted in the past. Expected too much. Her face was tired but resolute. Staring blankly at her reflection in the dresser mirror. There was something else though. Id watched her come three times with Eddy and that was before hed dismissed me to the lobby. Even then her attitude seemed, adjusted.
Did you enjoy yourself honey? I asked. She paused, looked down at the dresser top for a moment and then resumed with the hairdryer. For a moment I thought her unable to speak to me.
Actually she said. I did. Her voice was dry and quiet. All the groaning and at times, crying out she had done during intercourse had taken its toll. Id never seen her like that. Still speaking her mind so purposefully surprised even her. I suspected nothing would be the same. I can still feel his hands all over me.
and his cock I added.
Yes she added with a pause. He has a big willy hasnt he.
The next morning we went down to the beach and spent three hours or so sunbathing and swimming. It was another glorious day. To look at Kirsten you would never have suspected any of it had taken place. The events of the previous night banished from our happy family. Somehow, I felt satisfied that we had taken matters far enough. If my wife had indeed had sex with Eddy to make a point she had done so. Kirsten seemed her usual self, marshalling Poppy as she read her book. The glorious sun beating down hard from above. So much beauty all around. Nevertheless, my mind returned frequently to the space in her belly where at that moment, Eddys native African seed was residing. I wondered if hers did the same. Later, after packing up we got some lunch in one of the outdoor hotel restaurants. I hadnt seen Eddy but presumed he was working at his usual bar down the beach. Probably telling tales of his latest white, married conquest or even chatting up a potential new lady.
Kirsten went up to the room and changed into a blue, one-piece swimsuit. Returning with her sun-bag in one hand and a hat in the other she returned to the beach. Her shoulder length hair pushed back and held with a tie. Poppy, exhausted from the sun was happily enjoying herself in the lobby play area and after a cup of tea I took my camera and went outside to take some shots around the hotel. An hour past and deciding to check on Kirsten I headed down to the beach. It was busier than Id imagined with sunbathers spaced out a few yards apart. Spotting my wife halfway down the sand I approached to find a young black man of maybe twenty standing with a tray of drinks. Id seen him around the hotel a lot, the last time serving a mid forties woman at Eddys bar whose eyes had been all over him. He was athletic and lean with boyish features and short dark hair. A red tribal necklace hanging around his neck.
My names Sima I heard the man say as I approached. The young waiter grinned, his eyes like saucers on my wifes body. The swimsuit really complemented her figure, particularly her trim waist and shapely breasts. Can I get you a drink lady ..or maybe more? he grinned making no effort to hide his indulgence.
Peter? Kirsten said, obviously flustered and glad to see me. She looked sheepishly around the other sunbathers. Just what was this?
Then it clicked. Eddy was not alone in his pursuit of white pussy and had obviously told his friends that Kirsten was available. My wife suddenly made the same conclusion and her face paled.
Oh my God Peter she gasped in embarrassment. Hes put it about all over the hotel. Quickly she covered herself with a thin red shawl, as if afraid other leering eyes might be watching. In that moment it seemed everyone around suddenly knew what she had done last night. Shaking my head at Sima he shrugged and departed, a scowl upon his young face. Clearly he had not been turned down often.
What did you expect honey? I said knowing full well there would have been implications for our actions. Eddy is probably up the beach getting a lap-dance from a couple of girls and talking all about you. I recalled the first day Id see Joanne and Rick together with Eddy and some of his friends. The Alcove had been private and accessible enough. Id described the events of that day to her in detail.
Oh my god, this is terrible, we need to leave. We need to . My wife stopped talking and stared out to sea.
Ok. I think Ill head up there I said at last. It dawned on me that Kirsten had sacrificed a lot. Id speak to Eddy, let him know this was a one time thing and to keep it quiet. She seemed to follow my trail of thought and nodded.
Ok honey, just hurry back ok?
Brushing the sand from my shorts I made my way along the seafront. Along the beach led to desolate jungle but well before that, just around the hillside was the alcove. A convenient place for hotel workers to shrink away for beer, cigarettes or women if the opportunity was there. A breeze picked up and I had to take care along the rocks. The alcove itself was obscured from the main beach and I saw Sima wandering up towards the wooden forms where both Eddy and another man were sat smoking. I had seen this other man the previous day, working in the bar with Eddy. He called himself Mashudu or Mash for the tourists. They looked up as I approached.
I send Sima to fuck your wife Eddy said as I sat down. She say no?. He didnt sound entirely happy. The young man shrugged and switched on a small battered radio.
He must get plenty I suggested.
French, German, Italiano yes yes. Never English. Not yet. I felt the men were playing with me and suddenly they burst into laughter.
He reintroduced Sima and Mash who it turned out was Eddys cousin. Both men had worked at the hotel for many years. The three soon lost interest in me and continued listening to their radio and rolling cigarettes. They talked in their native language and a short period of time seemed to pass. Suddenly, from the corner of my eye a figure appeared against the seafront. It was my wife. She was stumbling slowly along the rocks, her shawl around her shoulders. For a moment I thought she was going to fall but she managed to get down to the sand. What was she doing? We all watched curiously as she saw us and approached.
So this is where you come? she said with a shy smile and shaking her shoulder length dark hair.
Hey baby Eddy grinned taking a long drag on his stub and exchanging a joke with Sima. Boys this here Kirsten. Woman I was telling you about. Kirsten blushed and looked down. Her earlier notion for me to put a stop to Eddys tale telling seemed to have gone for now. Returned to his presence she was perhaps reminded of last night. Everyone here knew what shed done. There was no hiding it.
Eddy ran his eyes up and down my wifes well kept figure. Why you no fuck Sima? he laughed at last. He very he help out his hands to insinuate the young mans size. Kirsten looked away, speechless. There was a huge cultural gap here and it was fascinating to see it. To Eddy and his friends, we were no different that Rick and Joanne. It was hard to tell if these men were toying with us or not. I guessed they could see how awkward and new to it we were. Eddy finished his cigarette and lit a new one. He took a deep drag into his lungs and looked at her through narrow eyes.
Now lady he said. You going dance for us?. Kirstens eyes widened. For young Sima he added slapping the young mans back. He stood up and leant close to my wife ear, whispering something inaudible to the rest of us. My wifes face darkened but she turned almost submissive to his demands. Looking around she spotted some rocks and headed slowly towards them.
After three minutes, Mash signalled her return with a whistle and slapping of his thigh. Kirsten was still wearing the shawl around her but it was obvious that she had turned her swimsuit around back to front. Her breasts moved freely, exposed out of the front with the flat nipples visible through the thin shawl. I couldnt believe it. For years Id wanted a slut-wife and now Eddy had practically done it overnight. He grinned and nodded as she walked up to us, motioning her to take away the shawl and show herself off. Breathing heavily she closed her eyes and let the garment drop to the sand. My erection showed no sighs of dipping, particularly with my wife standing topless in front of three horny, black men. Their eyes were glued to her exposed chest.
Mmm thats it baby smiled Eddy.
Western whores the best added a delighted Sima, admiring my wifes beautiful English tits. It was clear he fancied Kirsten a lot.
Now dance for us baby Eddy said resting back on the form. The old radio continued to spill authentic African music as slowly she began to sway her hips. Tentative at first and glancing frequently down the hill as if afraid someone from the beach had any chance of seeing us. Who knew what she was thinking. Certainly she amazed even herself as her breasts moving explicitly in the afternoon shade. She was getting into it more and more. Her movement more impulsive, teasing. Vigorously she turned, putting her hands on her ankles and her ass up in Eddys face. Her sudden, growing enthusiasm taking even him by surprise. This was getting to her, turning her on. To finish she went along the row, putting her breasts inches from each mans grinning face. Almost as if she was finally enjoying the power she had. Then, torn from her fantasy she stopped and her swaying ended. Her moral principles snapping back into play.
The men clapped and Kirsten gave me a confused, bewildered look. Just what was happening to her. She returned to the rocks to change back. What a difference. Sima blew out his cheeks in appreciation of the hot lap-dance. When she reappeared she was flush and coy, seemingly a little ashamed of her behaviour too. Mash and Sima both had to be back at work but thankfully though, Eddy had another few hours. He grinned at me, erection standing up through his pants. I knew what was in his head and after that show he was ready to pound my wifes pussy for her performance.
Come Kirsten, we go back to your room he said. She widened her eyes but didnt resist. Such a thing was to be expected. It was what she wanted after all. He smiled, holding her ass I carried her bag. My pulse was rising again. Was this what it was going to be like for the rest of our holiday? I hoped so. As they walked quickly back along the beach my wife kept her head down. Especially when we past the bar were Eddy worked. Several mature women sat and watched with knowing, jealous looks. They knew what Kirsten was in for all right.
Eddy didnt want to draw the attention of any lobby staff so he sent us in first. We met in the lift, the horny male lifting and squeezing her tits as they kissed passionately against the wall. It was incredible. Almost as if I wasnt there at all. She groaned, needing his long dick again and reaching for it between his legs. Quickly he led her by the hand along the carpet and to the door of our room. It felt the same as the previous night but more impatient. Once inside Eddy dragged the swimsuit down around her waist. Her breasts bouncing free as he planted a heavy set of lips on her nipple. He sucked greedily, squeezing her tits with his hands.
Tell Hubby what you want bitch he smiled at me. Croaking a groan of pleasure Kirsten looked at me standing hard and desperate by the door.
Fuck me Eddy she said to my amazement. Id hardly ever heard her swear. Fuck me with that huge black Willy.
Thats good Kirsten he grinned. You know that hubby.
Its so much bigger than my husbands she added with a smile. His shirt and trousers came off as quickly, hard-on jutting out from his crotch with aggressive intent. Kissing Kirsten hard on the mouth he pushed her back on the bed, tugging the gusset of her swimsuit aside. After last night, my wifes cunt offered only token resistance as he parted her legs and shoved his big cock up her. I watched as she folded her ankles around his back. Her body swallowing up his dick again inch by inch until the heavy, fat balls squashed against her.
Oooohhh yes Eddy she moaned, eyes closed in pleasure.
MMm yeah baby her black lover grinned, lifting himself up to a fucking position. Kirsten screwed up her eyes tight, her mouth open wife as the bed met the wall. Thump thump thump . Part of me hoped the occupants of the next room could hear it. Hear my wife being such a slut. Gasping, hard and erect in my shorts I leant back on the dresser. Eddys sweaty black cock enjoying white, married pussy for the second time. She looked oily and wet, taking each stroke deep.
.UUUUrrgh. With a long, desperate wail she came, her hands digging into his back.
White bitch Eddy gasped breathlessly a single bead of drool rolled from his bottom lip and extended down onto the skin of her neck. Kirsten turned away, her face contorted. I imagined she was already tender from last nights fucking. Her married cunt getting another stretching so soon.
With one arm Eddy pushed her left leg back, pointing the heel to the ceiling. Confident he could fuck a little deeper he drove manic, wailing cries of anguish from Kirstens mouth.
Urrrgh ..ohhh .uurrh .arrrgh she grunted as he ground his long meat into her belly with purposeful strokes. I couldnt help myself and began jacking my dick, just as I had last night. Masturbating to this sight was all too easy. Kirsten was defeated, hopeless. All that was left was for him to pump his African seed between her legs.
Sssshhhaaa he gasped as last, lurching forward and driving three paced, hard strokes again the bed. My wifes legs relaxed and unwound as she accepted the full contents of his balls. A healthy, paced fuck reaching its conclusion. Gently he pulled back, leaving her married cunt lips slightly ajar and filled with thick white semen.
Eddy fucked Kirsten again both Wednesday and Thursday. Usually around mid-afternoon when he would not be missed from the bar. On both occasions he came down to the beach where he knew we would be. Our daughter splashing in the sea while he sidled to my wife and suggested she go back with him to our hotel room. He was insatiable. Even more amazing was how my wife seemed to succumb to his advances. Submissive, perhaps shocked at her own actions. Only last week she had been disgusted by the mature, western women who gathered around Eddys bar, chatting and flirting with him and Sima. Now she was no better, turning several knowing heads as she made her way back towards the hotel with the randy African.
Our last night at the hotel was one to remember. Eddy and several other employees had been roped into a special evening for paying guests only. It was billed as an authentic evening of Kenyan culture and dance and a giant poster hung in the lobby. As preparations began we didnt see him at all on Friday or at any time on Saturday morning. The beach bar was closed. Determined to buy some traditional gifts for both her parents and her sister, Kirsten wanted to go into town and look around the local markets. I wondered if my wife was going to miss Africa and what kind of memories she would have of this place? Certainly she loved the native feel of Kenya, the warm and welcoming people. Part of her, Im sure though was glad to be heading home to normality. Perhaps she felt she could put some distance between ourselves and the actions that had taken place here. Back home, no-one would know what she had done and in time maybe her memories would fade to a contented blur.
Back in the large dining room a stage had been set up, decorated in green and yellow with lights hanging from the ceiling. My daughter watched with fascination as a band complete with two large tribal drums came out and began setting up their equipment. There must have been fifty or more tables, the hotel staff hurrying to set them up for that evenings performance. Later, as we dressed for dinner I too had mixed emotions. Kirsten and I had reached a crossroads in our relationship sure enough but I was unclear in my mind if I wanted it to end. It was eight months since I had broken my wifes confidence and cheated on her with a young black woman called Sanja. Now that Eddy had, had his way I was sure we were more than even.
I have to say she said as she readied herself at the dresser, itll be good to get home.
Will it? I grinned, expecting she would miss Eddy more than shed care to admit. She paused, took a deep breath and turned to me.
I wont deny Peter that its been an experience. But you mustnt ever speak of it to anyone once were home. My thoughts immediately turned to phone video I had of Eddy powerfully fucking Kirsten but I remained silent.
My wife had on a white, 60s style dress with bare arms and a square front which fastened up the back. I watched her getting ready, my gaze transfixed. The dress fitted just above the knee, a belt and gold buckle around the waist with stockings and bra beneath. She didnt wear any knickers and had a small, silver crucifix around her neck, hanging above her breasts which lifted neatly together out of the front. Perfect and delicate. As she did her hair I put on a suit and together we took Poppy down to enjoy the show. A perfect western family. Taking a seat at our reserved table the other guests filled the dining room, looking excited about the evening ahead. I cast my eye around the crowd noticing several familiar faces. There was no doubting that several other women had taken black cock during their stay at the hotel. I wondered how many for the first time. Either from one of the employees or one of the many local men who wandered the beaches during the day looking for western pussy.
After ordering drinks the lights dimmed and an African male in traditional tribal dress sprung out to the roar of drums. A collective gasp erupted around the room and a wave of applause sprang up. The man was in an excellent outfit including head-dress, a bare chest and a grass and leather skirt. He held a dangerous looking spear in his hand and yellow war-paint upon his face. His feet were bare and he shrieked out in his native tongue, thrilling the audience who at once went for their cameras. The flash of bulbs glittered the stage. Then the band played and perhaps ten more men came out. They were less orchestrated, obviously having performed this scene for many tourists in the past. Amongst them were Eddy, Sima and his uncle Mash. Though not nearly as active as the leader they joined in the song and stamping their feet. It was a tourist show. Nevertheless, the crowd loved it. Kirsten watched quietly, sipping her drink. Who knows what unnatural thoughts went through her mind. I wondered if she found the sight arousing. The black, muscled torsos in their aggressive stance.
There was riotous applause once more as the men were clapped off. Turning back to the table Kirsten helped Poppy cut up her food. Then putting her hand across the table she squeezed mine and gave me a smile. It was a lovely moment. We were heading home together a family. Had our escapade brought us closer together? Id certainly never been as attracted to my wife as I was at that moment. As if sensing this, the hunter like Sima appeared beside us. He, like the others had spread out now the show was over and was taking orders for drinks on a paper pad. Each remained in the native dress. Some even posing for photographs with guests.
Hello nice people he grinned, rolling his tongue around his lips. He still had designs on Kirstens pussy sure enough and I was immediately reminded of the lap-dance she had been compelled to give the group the other day. It aroused me considerably to know he had seen her virtually naked. True enough my wifes eyes widened as he stared hungrily at her. Sima didnt know anything of us or our lives back home. He just saw a white woman his in Kenya for one thing only; black cock. In this crowded dining room I could understand her reluctance to draw attention to ourselves. Want drink? he asked.
Carlsberg for me I said contentedly.
House White wine said Kirsten, and a lemonade. She touched Poppys head. Sima wrote down the order and grinned suggestively.
Anything else lady? he said. His gaze fell to my wifes tits and Kirsten blushed. The young mans huge hard-on was barely masked by his billowing grass skirt.
Not now Kirsten gasped covering her mouth in embarrassment. Another couple at a nearby table sniffed and looked over in contempt. Just as I had earlier noticed other sluts around the room, now Kirsten been labelled.
But maybe later? the ever hopeful lad beamed.
We finished our meal. My wife ate little. Throughout our holiday she had only fucked Eddy. Now it seemed she had inadvertently agreed to let Sima into her bed. She was battling with herself. I felt she was just eager to get back to the hotel room and hope the young stud found another willing, white affectionate. Quickly the three of us made our way though the lobby and into the lift. Our room was a welcome destination. After taking off my suit, I got Poppy ready for bed. Then I returned to our adjoining room where my wife was staring at herself in the dresser mirror. With a tired sigh she stood and lifted her foot to un-strap the first of her high heel shoes. As soon as she touched the buckle a knock came from the door. In an instant her face emptied of colour and she looked at me. We were both thinking the same.
Peter? she said weakly.
Well, it would be a fine end to the holiday? I said. There was a pause while she fought with herself.
Alright, let him in.
I went to the door and unfastened it. There, in the corridor were Sima, Eddy and Mash. They had taken off the head-dresses but had the rest of their garb intact. For a second I froze. Three natively dressed African men. Eddys older face was painted with three green lines. I should have known he would not be denied a last shot at Kirstens married hole. His grin spread across his face.
Who .who is it honey? my wife asked, perhaps sensing something was wrong. Before I could answer the men pushed past me, Eddy shutting the door quickly behind him.
Hello again lady Sima grinned. The young man had no such inhibitions now safely in our hotel room. Pulling the crotch of his outfit aside he slipped the shaft of his cock into his hand. Eddy had not exaggerated in the alcove for he was indeed, very well hung. A thick and dark pole. My wife took a step back as the men leered at her.
Time to give this white whore good send off grinned Eddy. He looked horny as hell and I could smell cigarettes, sweat and lust upon him.
I dont think I can can do this gasped Kirsten looking around the three men. All ignored her. Feverish in their determination to seed this trapped western slut. Sima and Mash walked up, the later immediately putting his hand on my wifes chest and fondling her breasts in turn through the dress materiel.
Nice white bitch he gasped in his broken English.
Just wait a moment my wife gasped but she was fighting a losing battle. Her dress was unzipped by Sima and pulled neatly down over her bra. The young mans lips were upon her neck as she looked at me for help. There were none. We were after all, guests in their country. These men were in charge here and they just wanted her dress up and legs apart as soon as possible. I saw the earlier look of faith towards me dwindle in my wifes eyes and her face bowed, reigned. Her married belly was getting pumped full of sticky, African come one last time.
Our small room looked crowded. I watched, pulse racing as Sima fumbled with her bra, wrenching her torso back in his haste to get it off. Eventually the clasp came free and the two men rolled their hands over my wifes heavy tits.
Lovely bitch. Thick fingers squeezed the soft, round nipples with eager disregard. Mash was the least well endowed of the men at a mere eight inches. Older veins running down the uncut shaft of his dick. I wondered how many women he had fucked while working here. His chest lightly covered with grey hair that fitted with a man of late fifties. Taking off his grass skirt he pushed Kirsten to the floor of the room and slid his cock into her mouth. It looked like it had seen plenty of use. My wifes red lips stretched to take him and she coughed as he slid his erection to the back of her throat.
Mmm, yes thats good he gasped, drawing back and fucking her mouth with small, impatient strokes.
Yeah man fuck that pretty mouth added Sima.
Both he and Eddy stood, jerking off and awaiting a turn. All three were erect and an enormous size. Despite my earlier feelings, my cock was hard for this sight. I wanted it to happen. It was only nine in the evening and this could go on a long time. Kirsten, rising up onto her knees took Mashs cock n her hand and began blowing him properly. Her head rose and fell as she took him, a big grin of pleasure on the older mans face. Yes bitch yes yes he sighed. Bringing up his length Kirsten turned to Sima and took him next. She croaked, eyes wide at the floor as the young black stud forced his dick into her throat.
Thats right, suck that dick bitch he laughed, patting Eddy on the arm. You look pretty with black dick in your mouth.
Gggrrrurh my wife coughed violently, a wad of spittle bubbling down her chin and landing on her chest.
My cock pulsed as my wife was systematically used. It seemed as if my head was going to explode from all the emotions I felt. Sima had stepped in. Holding my wifes head against the foot of the bed and ploughing her throat with controlled strokes. Reluctant and needy gasps blurted from her lips together with the regular sliver of drool that already streaked the crisp front of the dress. When Sima withdrew, hot and panting, my wifes perfect lipstick was slightly smudged. She put her hand to her throat, seeking to compose herself. The dark brown of his cock skin was wet with a small patch of spit on the head. Kirsten gasped for precious oxygen over and over.
Oh .oh oh . her chest wall rose and fell. She was getting used. As the men stood around, wanking their impatient cocks in her face I slipped my hand into my trousers. This was just incredible. Three of them.
Oh god, oh god Kirsten gasped, her voice muffled as Eddy took a short turn. Already her mascara was starting to run. As he took her head and worked her lips up and down his shaft Mash crossed the room and opened the patio window, letting in the sticky, hot, evening air. The sound of the sea flooded into the room as Sima took over. Now with her hands pressed tightly to his thighs my wife attempted to control the depth of his fucking. A white fuck-toy.
Ggg Gggg Gggg she croaked as Sima held her behind the head, his hips rocking back and forth.
Shit I go come I come grunted the young man. His thrusting stopped. My wifes eyes turned upward as his warm, salty seed gushed into her mouth. Yeeeeaaah. Holding her head still a minute he released and withdrew.
Thats good bitch. Now swallow that Eddy said commandingly. With bulging cheeks and a submissive nod my wife did so, screwing up her face as she took Simas sticky baby batter down in two gulps.
Damn yeah he smiled.
Kirsten wiped her lips with the back of her hand. Likely the taste of salty, thick semen strong and lingering in her mouth. From the floor she looked up at the three grinning Kenyans.
You want us to fuck that pretty white pussy baby? Eddy grinned playing with his member. Pushing her hair behind her ear my wife seemed almost in a daze, her eyes blank.
Yes Eddy she said dutifully. He said something in Africa to his friends and between them they helped her stand and dispense with the dress. My wife, now in just her stockings and heels was led around the bed. Almost throwing her over the mattress Mash brushed his rough hands over her back and positioned himself on one knee. Pulling back his foreskin he worked the head against my wifes slippery cunt lips.
That good he sighed as he slowly pressed forward with the shaft.
Ohhh .Peter! my wifes face screwed up tight as her hole took him. Pursing his lips the older male pushed his way up from behind, fucking with short strokes.
Urrrgh ..urrrgh ohhhh yes two more desperate and long groans erupted from her mouth as he took firm hold of her hips and began laying in harder. The bed seemed to move, jerking.
Collapsing down onto her elbows with her ass in the air Kirstens mouth hung open. The steady slapping of his heavy balls audible to all against the distant call of the sea. His dick would be good preparation for Eddys.
Thats it my wife groaned, dont stop .please dont stop. Her fingers were tight on the bed-sheet.
Damn that pussy good stammered Mash, sweat collecting on his brow.
Ohhh she moaned, her body tensing up as she came. Following suit and thrusting quickly with his hips Mash ejaculated, throwing back his head and squirting his load up into my wifes warm, welcoming cunt.
Winding down and pulling out, the older man wiped his forehead with a tissue from the dresser. His cock twitched still, semi-hard and wet from sex. As Eddy roughly began taking her from behind Sima wandered around the bed and lifted my wifes torso. Squatting he started slapping his dick playfully around her cheeks. Tormenting her with it. It seemed he wanted to make her pay for refusing him the other day. Forcefully he guided his dick into her mouth.
Shit yeah .shit.. grunted Eddy. I walked around the bed where I could watch the steadfast ring of my wifes pussy stretched around his cock. His balls slapping furiously, heavy and loaded. Despite the growing fucking she was taking from behind she managed to roll her lips up and down Simas cock, his heavy hands reaching beneath to cup and squeeze her breasts. It was an awesome sight to witness. Two black dicks in her at a time.
Eddy, impatient as ever, turned Kirsten onto her back, winding her with his eagerness. Gathering up her legs he effortlessly penetrated and pushed up into her. Both her hands rested on his ass as it romped on top. His fat, heavy balls slapped away. Furiously mating in front of us all.
Yeah Kirsten .yeah lady he gasped in her ear. Your white pussy so good. I felt my come start to rise and realised Id been wanking hard. The sights, smells and atmosphere in our hotel room were electric. At the last moment I stopped and let the feeling subdue. There was no reason to rush anything. Humping solidly the horny Kenyan gasped along, mostly in his native language laced with the odd English. Fucking bitch .I fuck you good. Lifting herself onto her elbows Kirsten looked down over his naked back, towards his ass which romped between her legs. Elevating her chest made her breasts roll sweetly with the steady digging of his cock. Her face looked drained and her cheeks tear-stained.
Shit I come Eddy gasped after fifteen minutes of heavy pounding. He lurched forward, driving a gasp from my wife mouth as his spunk splattered up against the walls of her cunt.
Ohhhh Eddy she gasped tracing a hand down the side of his face. The stud grinned, finishing with a cruel wink. Now we pumpin that belly full. He looked over his shoulder to me, pulling his cock out and leaving a wad of semen welled in the hole. Both his and Mashs combined. There was a solid mess between her legs on the bed. This was a train though. No sooner had Eddy stepped off the bed than Sima was climbing on. Kirsten covered her eyes with her hand. This was incredible. In moments the young mans dick began to pump deep, come gathering around the lips of her married pussy.
Locking her ankles over his back Kirsten gasped along. She was on her way to another orgasm. Eddy and Mash knelt on the bed, fondling her breasts and touching her hair. The high heels were still in place but only just. Perhaps feeling them catching his skin Sima paused, expertly collected her legs and pushed them back into the air. With a hand on the bed rail I watched. His heavy dick slamming up and down, penetrating her body completely with each thrust. The steadfast ring of come around his shaft a promise to what had already been delivered. Three African men, in the tribal colours of their homeland. It was incredible.
Feeling I should go and check on Poppy in the next room I humbly dismissed myself. While Sima and Kirsten rutted away I crept out and stood in the hall head spinning. The space of the carpeted hall felt welcome. No-one would know what was going on inside. Slowly I twirled the wedding ring on my hand around my finger. Was I really going to be able to give this feeling up? To put it all behind us when we flew home? The lights were off as I entered. Much as I has left her I walked to the bed. She was sleeping soundly. Too young to understand what was going on in the adjoining room. The steady but faint sound from the next room was quiet but audible. I heard my wifes voice but could not understand the words. Her savage, needy groans erupting every few seconds. The taunting laughs of the men.

Albers' Sunday observations
Franklin Corpening had quite a gallery despite his early Sunday tee time. (Halleran/Getty Images)
By: Fred Albers, PGA TOUR.COM Correspondent
Boo Weekley found a way to overcome what has been a bad year of putting. He hit is so close to the cup that it took putting out of the equation. On the fifth hole, he eliminated the putter altogether with a 73-foot chip-in birdie. Weekley entered the tournament ranked 185th in strokes gained-putting. This week, he had putting rounds of 31, 26, 27 and 28 putts while ranking 33rd in strokes gained-putting. His ball-striking was spot-on the entire tournament. Weekley ranked sixth in greens in regulation but most importantly, he led the field in proximity to the hole. He averaged 25 feet, 8 inches. There is no doubt Weekley was the best ball-striker this week. It seems appropriate that shot making made the difference on Ben Hogan's course.
Ball marker: Zach Johnson did not play well in the opening round and now we know why. He lost his ball marker. Johnson's wife, Kim, made a marker several years ago that Zach uses for inspiration. It contains phrases and bible verses he reads during competition. On Thursday, that marker could not be found and Johnson struggled to a 69. He found the marker wedged between two pieces of paper in his golf bag and proceeded to shoot 65-68-66 to finish just two shots back of Boo Weekley.
Family affair: The most touching moment of the tournament took place before noon. That's when Franklin Corpening finished off a 62. He is from Fort Worth and was a "Champion's Choice" invitee. A huge local gallery walked the entire 18 holes with their favorite son and their early morning cheers echoed throughout the property. As Corpening exited the course, his Dad and Mom were there for hugs and tears. Matt Kuchar stopped to congratulate him on the way to the range. Corpening says his entire family rarely gets to see him play and to shoot a 62 with his family watching, is a moment he will forever remember.
Chipping: It all seemed so easy for Scott Stallings and it all came apart so quickly. Stallings shot 6 under on the front nine, turning in 29. A three-putt bogey from 15 feet on the 10th hole was an unforced error but Stallings immediately rebounded with a birdie on the 11th. He was 13 under and just two yards off the 15th green when the round unraveled. Stallings' ball was in the seam, separating green and rough. The ball was sitting down and he "fatted" the chip into a bunker. It took Stallings two swipes to get out of the sand before he finally one-putted for a double bogey. The whole collapse took less than two minutes. Stallings' body language was good, as he parred the next three holes to finish T4. Every golfer in the tournament has a sad story to tell, but there might have been a different tournament winner if Stallings could replay those 120 seconds of frustration.
Consistent: Matt Kuchar did not win but he gave himself a chance because of his consistency. He had a total of four bogeys the entire week. Kuchar hit 52 of 72 greens and didn't have more than 29 putts in any round. He successfully scrambled for par 16 of 20 times. Kuchar ranked seventh this week in strokes gained-putting and stayed in the tournament by making a 55-footer on the 12th green. Kuchar is such a steady player, he was right there for the win if Boo Weekley had faltered.

Hudson — A pastor at Christ Community Chapel, 750 W. Streetsboro St. is being held in the Philippines on charges connected to a human trafficking case.
Tom Randall, who was hired in September as pastor at large, was arrested on undetermined charges Jan. 12 while in Manila doing missionary work, according to the Rev. Joe Coffey, lead pastor at the Hudson campus of Christ Community Chapel.
Randall, of Stow, has been a missionary to the Philippines for about 20 years, according to Coffey. Randall, along with two Filipino nationals, are being held in connection with a human trafficking case.
"He went over to the Philippines to do relief work for the typhoon and visit his orphanage," Coffey said Jan. 16. "While he was at the orphanage, there were some allegations of misconduct [against him and] a couple of his workers."
Coffey said he was told the allegations were investigated and "no problems" were found. However, a complaint was recently filed with the U.S. Embassy in the Philippines and Homeland Security and Randall was arrested, according to Coffey.
According to a report from Inquirer.net, a Filipino national news website, Randall was arrested for allegedly "abusing children." The report states Toto Luchavez and Jake Luchavez were also arrested for alleged human trafficking.
"He is being held right now in Manila in a prison at NBI [National Bureau of Investigation] headquarters," according to Coffey. "His hearing tomorrow [Jan. 17] is to see if they will drop the charges."
Ohio Senator Rob Portman's office was made aware of the situation by members of Coffey's congregation.
"Senator Portman's staff reached out to and spoke directly with Ambassador Cuisia, the Filipino Ambassador in Washington, regarding Tom Randall," Michael Haidet, Portman's deputy press secretary said Jan. 16. "Our office is continuing to work all diplomatic channels to investigate this situation."
Haidet said Portman is concerned about Randall's "declining health."
"When our staff spoke with the Ambassador in Washington, he pledged to look into the situation, and we will continue to press for more information from his staff and our Embassy in Manila," Haidet added. "We do not know all of the details of the situation, but are proceeding with the information that has been presented to us as we further investigate Mr. Randall's detainment."
Filipino officials could not be reached for comment.
Coffey explained the circumstances of Randall's arrest in his blog Jan. 14.
"He went to the Philippines a month ago to spend time with the children of his orphanage and take some men from the States on a basketball trip they will be talking about for the rest of their lives," Coffey wrote. "Tom has been arrested and at this moment sits in prison … Please join me in praying for my friend, Tom Randall."
Church members started a "Free Tom Randall" Facebook page which has more than 11,300 likes since its Jan. 14 creation.
Randall has some access to his cell phone and has been in contact with Coffey.
"He has been a dear friend of mine for years and our people love him," Coffey said. "He is the most remarkable guy I've ever been around."
The church is continuing to pray for Randall and his wife, Karen.
"We are just praying that the truth would come out and justice would be done," Coffey said. "And we are going to use this, as a church, to pray for people who are in prisons falsely all over the world."

Food poisoning bug offers cancer cure
A genetically engineered strain of a bacteria that causes deadly food poisoning and septic shock has been given to cancer patients in a United States clinical trial.
In the first trial of its kind, Yale Cancer Center has given the Salmonella bacteria, altered to remove its pathogenicity, to patients who have cancer tumours. The Salmonella bacteria has previously been shown to target human cancer cells and inhibit their growth when injected into laboratory animals.
While as few as 10 "wild" type bacteria are enough to kill a mouse, mice injected with 10 million cells of the mutant salmonella strain showed no signs of infection.
"We have shown that we can significantly prolong the life of mice with melanoma by injecting them with our attenuated bacteria," said Dr John M. Pawelek from the Yale University School of Medicine. "After the Salmonella are introduced into the mouse blood stream, they seek out tumors, multiply there in great numbers, and - by mechanisms not fully understood - dramatically slow the rate of tumor growth and prolong life."
"These preliminary results with animals are encouraging. We would now like to see the same outcome in people," he said.
According to Paweleck, the original focus of the team's work with Salmonella was as a vehicle to carry anti-cancer genes to affected tumor cells. As the study progressed, however, the scientists were surprised to learn that the bacteria itself was fighting the cancer.
After treatment the patients were discharged, and Yale researchers are now awaiting the outcome. The University said that the study has been designed to evaluate the safety, potential efficacy and optimum biological dose of Salmonella for patients with both internal and external tumours.
The University is continuing to recruit patients to participate in the trial.

Much like its smaller sibling, the Regal, Buick's full-size LaCrosse sedan gets updates for the 2014 model year that address the car's worst offenses. Specifically, the center controls for the audio and climate systems have an all-new layout. It's easier to understand and lacks the similarly shaped tile buttons that made the old LaCrosse's dashboard controls more difficult to use than they needed to be.
More 2013 New York Auto Show Coverage
Like the Regal, however, the LaCrosse's new steering wheel is practically overflowing with buttons. The setup on the front of the steering wheel is relatively tidy, but there's still a lot for the driver to consider.
Exterior styling changes are concentrated on the front and rear of the sedan. The headlights and grille are a little bolder, and the taillights are more closely tied to the trunk-lid styling, but it's not like the current LaCrosse had a serious design problem that needed fixing.
Overall, the update isn't a dramatic change for the LaCrosse, but it takes care of the big things and keeps the car competitive.

Kaiser Health News / The Washington Post, March 6, 2013
At a critical point in a complex abdominal operation, a surgeon was handed a device that didn't work because it had been loaded incorrectly by a surgical technician. Furious that she couldn't use it, the surgeon slammed it down, accidentally breaking the technician's finger. "I felt pushed beyond my limits," recalled the surgeon, who was suspended for two weeks and told to attend an anger management course for doctors. The 2011 incident illuminates a long-festering problem that many hospitals have been reluctant to address: disruptive and often angry behavior by doctors.

ALAMEDA, Calif. — An American evangelical broadcaster whose end-of-the-world prophecy this year stirred a media frenzy has vanished from public view and the airwaves before his recalibrated doomsday date set for Friday.
After the apocalypse he predicted for May 21 failed to happen, Harold Camping emerged from a brief seclusion to say he had merely miscalculated by five months. He pronounced a new Judgment Day — Oct. 21.
The next month, the now 90-year-old former civil engineer suffered a stroke, his California-based Christian radio network said. He has largely dropped out of sight since then and his daily radio program "Open Forum," broadcast on more than 60 U.S. stations, has been cancelled.
Believers once fanned out nationwide with placards advertising Camping's message — some giving up life savings in anticipation of being swept into heaven — but there is little sign they are following the new doomsday countdown.
Gone, too, are the billboards posted by Camping's Family Radio network declaring Judgment Day was at hand.
Reached by telephone on Thursday, network spokesman Tom Evans declined to comment on Camping or his prophecies, except to say he had "retired" as a radio host but remained chairman of the board of Family Stations Inc.
Camping had little to say when he answered the door of his home in Alameda, wearing a bathrobe and leaning on a walker.
"We're not having a conversation," he said, shaking his head with a chuckle. "There's nothing to report here."
Municipal records show a Sunday prayer group led by Camping, the Alameda Bible Fellowship, has continued to meet weekly in a large ground-floor room of the Veterans Memorial Building leased by the city's Recreation and Park Department.
Marcia Tsang, a facilities coordinator for the department, said receipts show Camping's group rented the space since at least 1996, paying the standard fee of $45 an hour. The room remains assigned to his fellowship under an evergreen reservation that extends beyond this week, she said.
American Legion officer Ron Parshall, part of a veterans group that meets in an adjacent room one Sunday a month, said he has seen Camping leading Bible services there regularly.
He said the number of Camping's followers at the prayer meetings seems to have dwindled since the failed May 21 prophecy — down to about 25 adults on a typical Sunday — plus about 20 youngsters attending Sunday school classes in conjunction with the prayer group.
Parshall said when he saw Camping about a month ago, he showed no signs of debilitation and "wasn't limping at all."
"He was a nice man," Parshall said. "He was just too radical for me. Anyone who claims to be that close to God, I take it with a grain of salt."

At the risk of regretting this already, the much sought-after evidence from last Friday's hippie dippy henna session. Ask me how much fun my Lutheran doula had tracing the back of a miraculous medal on my 9 month pregnant belly…the answer is: lots.
(note: henna is black when applied in paste form, but after the 'crust' – for lack of a better term – peels off, the result is a lovely rich reddish brown stain that lasts for 1-3 weeks. So, here's hoping my medical team has something even more interesting to feast their eyes on in the delivery room than the status quo)

Singer Tony An recently mentioned retirement, which took the steam out of rumors of H.O.T.'s comeback.
Tony An, who has been busy recently promoting with Tony An & SMASH, revealed during the filming of KBS 2TV's 'Do Dream' his feelings about retirement, saying, "I have been thinking about retirement from the entertainment industry. Before the release of the single album, people were interested that I was going to be in a project group, so there were a lot of articles written about it and my name was one of the most commonly searched terms. But after the album was released, there doesn't seem to be much of a reaction." He continued, "I seriously started to think that maybe the public doesn't want me anymore, and that maybe it's time for me to retire as a singer."
His revelation is gaining the attention of fans, as it makes the rumors of H.O.T.'s comeback lose credibility. If Tony An were to retire as a singer, the possibility of H.O.T. reuniting for a comeback will likely not happen.
The rumors gained ground when Tony An and Moon Hee Jun appeared as guests on the March 13th broadcast of KBS 2TV's 'Win Win,' where they revealed, "We get together about once ever 3~4 years. This time around, the five of us met up and seriously talked about it. We're all on the same page. We all want to be together. There are some conditions that haven't been met, but once they are taken care of, we can always make a comeback."
Rumors of H.O.T.'s comeback were also aided by the fact that fellow original idol group Shinhwa recently reunited its six members for a comeback.

An Enfield MP has resigned from his government position.
David Burrowes, MP for Enfield Southgate, posted his resignation letter on social media site Twitter, from his position as Parliamentary Private Secretary.
Mr Burrowes has worked for minister for the cabinet office Francis Maude, minister of state for policy Oliver Letwin and Owen Paterson, secretary of state for environment, food and rural affairs in his time as a PPS.
In his letter to Prime Minister David Cameron, Mr Burrowes said: "The removal of my ruptured appendix and stay in hospital has given me time to reflect upon the priorities for the coming eleven months.
"I now wish to focus my attention in the remaining time of the parliament on what is in the best interests of my constituents, and our party.
"I have concluded that it is the right time to resigned as a PPS and return fully to the back benches.
"It will give me the freedom and the opportunity to work on issues like knife crime where I am leading with Nick de Bois MP an amendment to the Criminal Justice and Courts Bill for mandatory sentences."

So I hope you guys enjoyed my last recommendation, this week I think I'll change it up and recommend a game I personally think is fantastic but a lot of people might not have even heard of called:
What is it?
A sandbox action game set in Hong Kong where you play an undercover cop trying to infiltrate a Triad gang. Often called True Crime Hong Kong, however that is selling it way too short.
Why you should play it.
It is a violent action packed game that was totally underrated. The game had some pretty solid combat on park with the Batman Arkham Series, some fantastic graphics (especially on the PC!) a decent storyline with a handful of great characters mixed in with a dozen forgettable faces and tons of references to martial arts legends like Bruce Lee and throwbacks to John Woo films. The only real problem I had with this game is when the give you guns in the last 1/3 of the game. It was much more fun kicking guys in the face than it was shooting them from behind cover.
Let me know what you think of this game in the comments below. Have you played it? Will you play it? Why/why not?
Also, check out the awesome live action trailer they made for the game below and see you next Wednesday!

'Dilemma' trailer draws ire
Universal Studios had a dilemma of its own after Anderson Cooper, the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation and others had a problem with the trailer for its new Ron Howard vehicle, The Dilemma. It seems not so many people thought Vince Vaughn saying "electric cars are gay" was very funny.
Deadline.com says Cooper was shocked after seeing the trailer for the movie, which also stars Kevin James, Winona Ryder, Queen Latifah and Jennifer Connelly, and said so on CNN: "I was sitting in a movie theater over the weekend and there was a preview of a movie, and in it, the actor said, 'That's so gay,' and I was shocked that not only that they put it in the movie, but that they put that in the preview," Cooper said. "We've got to do something to make those words unacceptable, 'cause those words are hurting kids."
Universal responded that it had previewed the trailer before GLAAD and other gay rights groups, and they didn't have a problem with it, but that's not what GLAAD said. "After reviewing, GLAAD called on Universal to remove the scene where the word 'gay' was used as a pejorative from the trailer," the group said in a statement. "(Friday), after Anderson Cooper also spoke out against the scene, Universal confirmed to GLAAD that the offensive joke will be removed from promotional campaigns from this point forward, including in the trailer currently playing in movie theaters."
So there you have it: The line is still used in the movie, but as long as it's not in a preview trailer, that's okay.
Paltrow once was offered role for sex
Actress Gwyneth Paltrow says that the casting couch is still a tried-and-true method for producers auditioning young actresses. She tells Elle that even when she was starting out, she had the proverbial starlet moment. "When I was just starting out, someone suggested that we finish a meeting in the bedroom. I left," she told the magazine. She also says that Hollywood is tough for girls trying to break in, but it's even harder now that she's 38. "There's a lot (of roles that are) okay, but there's little that's really good, especially for someone my age," she says. "Sometimes you find out that something you really liked is going to someone 10 years younger."
Shaq, Paris love tiny horse
Einstein the miniature horse, who was featured on the Oprah Winfrey Show earlier this week, is apparently the world's most sought-after equine. Among the prospective buyers: Shaquille O'Neal and Paris Hilton, who apparently want him for no other reason than to possess the world's smallest horse. "Shaq would have to arm wrestle Paris Hilton for him," owner Charlie Cantrell told the New Hampshire Union Leader. "We've been contacted by so many people, but he's not for sale. He's priceless." For the record, Einstein, a miniature horse born April 22, is 1 foot 8 and weighs 47 pounds, even smaller than normal for a mini.

Western New York: Little cemetery on a hill
While re-reading this post Randee wrote last month, I was reminded of some photos I took while we were on vacation in western New York in June and July.
Several times, we drove by this tiny cemetery surrounded by a farmer's fields:
Only the grassy drive up to the little plot of land was not being farmed.
Driving on the grass is something so foreign for those of us in the west. We treasure every blade of grass, but it grows in very nook and granny back east.
What's also common in rural New York, are tiny, old cemeteries tucked into odd, little plots of land. I saw a new housing subdivision flanked by a small grassy area which held 30 old headstones. It reminded me of the vast history of the area and little, self-sufficient communites that used to dot this region. Would you buy a house next door to a charming little graveyard?
While several of the 19th century headstones had fallen over, the graveyard was well manicured. It looked more like something out of central casting, than a knoll in the middle of a famer's soybean crop.
I was also taken by the inscriptions. Many of these from the 19th century didn't have birth dates. Instead, the stone — like this one for John L. Wilson — included the death date and Mr. Wilson's exact age, 28 years and 24 days when he died.
When looking through these pictures, I thought I had captured ghosts in this one. Then I remembered it was windy that day and I was having a hard time keeping my hair out of the frames.
There's something about visiting cemetaries that reminds me of how we are just here, living on this earth, for a tiny fraction of time. It's both sobering and comforting. Time goes on with or without us.0 comments

This was our second stay at this campground. The sites are very clean & well maintained. Very good attitude towards the environment & wildlife of the area.
Close to both of the areas national parks. Plenty of outdoor activities offered.
Would definitely stay again. - Our-Wandering-Casa

Great park. Sites are mostly large and private. The post with our site # on it was kind of hidden/camouflaged, and we hit it with the side of our trailer. Put a hole in our trailer door. Sooo, drive very slow and watch for posts/obstacles. Roads are very twisty and narrow. Premium sites at the back are very nice. Try to get those if you have a big rig. Great location for exploring Tobermory and area. Note; water tap at dump station didn't work. Hope they fix it. We will definitely camp here again. - Monique_F

We stayed for about a week. The campground is spotless. The dog kennels could be improved - for example they are no longer on grass as advertised but concrete stones, and there is no cover for rain (our dogs were soaked as we couldn't get back in time to avoid the sudden rain). Dog kenneling prices are good and they will keep them til 8pm which is nice. Our site was ok - treed, but not level. It was easy to pull in -however, very tight exiting (the forward road was quite narrow). The rest of the roads in the park are easily travelled with a big rig. The site we had backed on to one of the parks main thoroughfares, so we were inundated with dust day in and day out - traffic, people, bikes etc constantly walking behind our RV (past our 'living room' window), made it noisy and dusty. Watering the road down would reduce the dust considerably. The exercise area, ponds, roaming ducks, restrooms, and petting zoo are all wonderfully cared for. There wasn't really any hiking or walking trails that we found to walk the dogs etc. For those that use it - the pool area and splash pad is clean and well maintained. There's a giant dumping bucket for the splash pad. There are carts to rent - very popular with the kids, and giant duck and swan paddle boats. There is a strict quiet time after 10pm which really makes it enjoyable in the evenings. They charge a 10.00 reservation fee if you reserve by phone - none by web. We paid 8.00 additional /night for a 3rd adult (no children however). We walked around the CG and simply picked better suited sites for our rig and preferences for next year - as we are definitely coming back. All in All a beautiful campground well run, clean, and lovingly maintained. We will continue returning. - ciara

We stayed here seven years ago, and the review I submitted then is still pretty much valid. "Very clean and fairly new facilities. Friendly staff who always seemed to be busy with something - hence very well maintained. Some pull-throughs, bit tight access because of nearby trees. Lots of shade sites, and some open sites for satellite access. Overall, this was a very nice park with convenient access to the Bruce Peninsula National Park and town nearby. We would definitely stay here again." The major change since 2007 is the price. Last time, the price was $36 per night. Now it is $50. That seems to be bit much of an increase. Next time, we will try some of the other places in the area, some of which are new. On top of the basic high price, everything else is added cost. Their laundry was very inefficient and expensive. We spent $20 for four loads and even then, the dryers did not work adequately. In our ten years of full-time RVing, this is among the most expensive and inefficient laundries we have used. - wandrr

Very nice well maintained campground. I'm sitting in the clubhouse as I'm writing this and they have a religious show on the TV and the walls are decorated in religious sayings. It feels a bit like a Bible Camp. Which is okay as long as they don't come around knocking on my RV door. It's close to town, people are very nice. - Gilligan

This was the only campground open in Tobermory after Canadian Thanksgiving, though it does close later in the month of October. It was clean and had zippy fast internet. The campground is about a mile from the center of Tobermory and a few miles from all the hikes and other things to do at the Bruce Peninsula National Park and Fathom Five National Marine Park. Our full service site was level and easy to get into. Price reflects off-season discount and $Canadian. - ShoreXplorers

242 sites without electric or water (available at central spigots.) Flush toilets are spread throughout. There are no showers in the campground but available just outside the camp (private). The location is what makes this park such a gem and as difficult as can be to get in during the summer. It is on the famous Bruce trail and a 1/2 hour hike takes you to the crystal clear blue waters of Georgian Bay, looking down from high cliffs. There is great swimming including a grotto and other fascinating creations in the limestone cliffs. The campground is located on a small lake with a narrow beach. If you like to hike, this is the spot. If you like to swim don't pass this up! - Gandalf

Wonderful campground. No outside radio play! Very quite in the evening.
Best site to ask for is N28. This is further away from the amenities but it's worth the extra walk. - TMinett

Excellent stay! Used our Passport America pass and stayed off-season for half the usual rate. Clean, extra friendly, lots of activity even in the pouring rain! Despite a hook-up issue we were having with our hitch, the staff gave us an extra hand to solve the problem. Thank you. We would be happy to return there anytime, and highly recommend it! - camping folk

Dear Gossips,
Prince Big G turns a year old on July 22. So Vanity Fair is celebrating him by putting him the cover. I don't understand why none of them, especially him, the star of the show, are looking directly AT the camera. Perhaps it's meant to convey how connected they all are as a family. Read Full Intro

I originally went to the doctor for acne treatment, but while there, I explained her that I'm going on vacation in June, and I would like to go with a clear face. She suggested that I have chemical peel.
She gave me an antbiotic to take for a month, and Retin-A and Cetaphil to use on my face,then i went back to her in about 2 weeks for a chemical peel, while the assistant was cleaning my face for the peel, I felt burning pain. I told her and the dermatologist, who then said we will do the B-lift 20% instead of the chemical peel. It burned like she said when she applied it and then it cooled down. I washed my face, it was frost white, and then the MA applied moisturizer and sunscreen.
The spots then turned dark, and the doctor said it was dead skin, and that it will fall off in 24 hours. However, it's still here and it looks horrible, like burns. Is this normal?

Iowa City school board wants February special election on funding
Proposal would give district authority to borrow up to $100 million for building projects
Voters in the Iowa City school district will probably go to the polls in February to decide whether to give the district the ability to borrow up to $100 million for building projects.
The five school board members at Tuesday night�s meeting were unanimous in their informal support of a Feb. 5 special election date. Official action will occur at a future meeting.
The election would be held to ask voters to approve a new revenue purpose statement to replace the one enacted as part of the school infrastructure local-option sales tax passed by voters in 2007.
That would allow the district to access sales tax money until 2029, beyond the 2017 end date of the current revenue purpose statement.
District leaders want to use what are called tax anticipation revenue bonds to borrow against future sales tax revenue.
Administrators say the district�s standard approach of paying for construction projects with tax money already collected does not bring in enough money soon enough to deal with its growing enrollment.
The district�s certified enrollment for this school year is expected to be more than 300 students above last year�s 12,453 students, Superintendent Stephen Murley said. Enrollment was 11,718 in 2007.
A new high school, three elementary schools and building additions are among the projects that have been discussed, although the board has not committed to anything.
�We have an opportunity in front of us now to meet more needs in the community,� Murley said.
School board and community members have been advocating for various projects to be paid for out of limited sales tax dollars, which has caused conflict in recent months.
A majority of the school board was prepared earlier this month to change a policy that sets aside $32 million for a new high school and instead spend that money on elementary school projects.
North Liberty parent Joe Strathman cited the uncertainty over the new high school, which some people felt was promised in the 2007 SILO campaign, in arguing that the district will need to name specific projects in the revenue purpose statement.
He called for the community to back the funding proposal, but said, �You need to earn my trust and the trust of all of us in here tonight.�
The revenue purpose statement will say what the sales tax money would be used for, but typically the language is broad so as to not tie the hands of future school boards.
About $100 million would be accessible with a new statement. Administrators would still need to go to the school board with specific plans to bond for projects, however.
�It�s not a one lump sum with no discretionary authority by the board,� Murley said.
Also, having that kind of money available does not automatically mean the district can afford to build at will. It would take ongoing funding to staff and otherwise operate new schools and building additions.Because the bonds would borrow against sales tax revenue, they would not increase the property tax rate. That is something school officials have already started stressing as they take the proposal to the public.

Imola, Italy - Thousands of fans joined Formula One drivers past and present on Thursday in marking the 20th anniversary of the death of Ayrton Senna at the Italian circuit where the triple champion crashed 20 years ago.
They thronged the track to observe a minute's silence at the Tamburello corner at 2.17pm, the moment the Brazilian's Williams ploughed into the wall while leading the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix.
Many carried flags and some pointed to the sky, as Senna did when he won, in remembrance before breaking into applause when the minute ended.
Austrian rookie Roland Ratzenberger had died the day before Senna, when he crashed during qualifying, and the two remain the most recent driver fatalities during a Grand Prix weekend.
The circuit near Bologna was opened to the public with tribute events scheduled in Imola, including a memorial football match and the naming of a square, over the next four days. According to organisers, about 20 000 people attended on Thursday.
A mass, attended by Ratzenberger's parents, was held on Wednesday night.
Senna's niece Paula, representing the family, said: "It's so emotional for us because it's a long time and still the love from the people is very alive.
"It seems like Ayrton is living inside people's hearts, so it's beautiful."
Current Ferrari drivers Fernando Alonso and Kimi Raikkonen, as well as Senna's friend and former McLaren team-mate Gerhard Berger, were among those present at the track named after the late Enzo Ferrari and son Dino.
"For me he was an idol."
Double world champion Alonso, who was 12 when Senna died, said: "I was a kid who rode karts, and back then I watched the news and saw that it was always him winning with his yellow helmet on.
"That was what hit me the most. I had his poster on my wardrobe and it's a shame that I never got to know him or race against him, but the number of people here at Imola is a testament to his impact.
"He will always be immortal."
Senna's favourite Sao Paulo soccer team Corinthians donned replicas of his distinctive yellow, green and black helmet before the start of a Cup match against Nacional in Manaus on Wednesday.
Social media was flooded with tributes, recollections and an outpouring of affection for a driver held up as one of the greatest of champions, if not the greatest.
"He was the best and most charismatic race driver Formula One has ever had."
Triple champion Niki Lauda, now non-executive chairman of the Mercedes team, said: "He had personality, he was fast and he had charisma. No wonder he won everything."
Italian MotoGP great Valentino Rossi spoke on Twitter of Senna as "an inspiration, and even if 20 years have passed his spirit lives on in all racing riders and drivers."
Jean Todt, the president of the governing International Automobile Federation, said in an address delivered on his behalf that the fight to improve safety would never cease and there could be no complacency.
"No matter how secure we may feel that injuries and fatalities are a thing of the past, the battle for completely safe racing is never won," he said.
"The untimely deaths of these two superb sportsmen served as a wake-up call for all of us," he added.
"Perhaps the greatest legacy of Ayrton and Roland is that in the wake of that dark weekend in 1994, the pursuit of safer motor sport, in all its forms, received greater impetus than ever before."
