it feels great!!!!!!! thanks for sending the vibes - although only u.s. citizens could vote, I personally felt that the world was with us!!!
yes, it was a wonderful speech....and did I ever cry with happiness. although the election is over, as they carpenters sung (in that godawful song) we've only just begun.....
p.s. thanks for popping in at the mouse yesterday and your lovely comment. quite behind with responses to comments - we have been busy over here!
I love french fancy too.... and if you ever get to nibbling the mouse, you'll not be able to help but notice I fancy france and the french quite a bit!!

justme - we did the same. It was a historic moment.
mouse - or should I say kimy? - I hope he has a bit of a rest now, although I guess excitement and adrenalin are quite good stimulants.
willow - he is such a brilliant speaker. After a mumbling duffer like Bush who can't even read his notes properly, Obama is an articulate highly intelligent man who really seems genuinely nice and kind.
anonymous - are you my Nantes-Brest canal expert? Welcome back if you are and hello anew if you are not.

Oh and just to be trivial but that bit about his daughters having earned the new puppy that will go with them to the White House...sob!
No,definitely not a canal expert. But I do love Venice. :)
Absolutely!

I cried and cried!

You know what though, I was mighty proud of McCain. His concession speech with first rate. He's a good man, it's too bad he's in the wrong party.
I did vote, it was an amazing thing to be part of history.
