Hi guys!
Wow, your trip and your site have come to a close. We have soooo enjoyed following your journey over this past year+. Even though we only met you for a few hours at the Corner Bistro during your first jaunt through New York, we could relate to every story, every photo, every frustration, every joy and every turn of your adventure... and, of the roller coaster of coming home that you're experiencing now. Hang in there... you will always miss the trip, but that sadness will be balanced with the amazing memories that you share with each other, a sense of belonging to the world, kick ass photos to hang in your house, and the rare satisfaction of having accomplished something that so few others ever even dare to dream of.
(Hold the cheese, I know... but I know you understand).
Your website, writings, and photos, by the way, were unbelievable. Most impressive was that you kept up with it until the very end. We still haven't posted our Asia photos yet (never mind that we got back 4 years ago... eeek). It's amazing the change in technology over the last few years since we took our trip... really wish we had had a Treo!!
Thank you so much for sharing your adventure with us. You let us relive our own journey all over again.
Next time you're in New York or we're in Seattle... let's please connect!
Best regards,
Ken & Stephanie
