Man, its tough to come back! 14 countries, 105 days, and now we're back, facing 105 chores. This was an amazing trip and we were very fortunate in our experiences and also our good luck. During the trip we only had stomach problems from water once (in Egypt) and were only sick one other time (in Israel). We had no lost luggage, no bad customs or visa experiences, and amazingly great weather for three months. We just missed political problems in several countries (Greece riots, Mumbai bombings, Thailand airport demonstrations), but only had to change our plans once, skipping Fiji and staying in New Zealand longer, which actually ended up working out for us anyway.

For all of you who followed along and commented on the way, thank you. It was good to have a small connection to home throughout our trip. Sorry we got a little lax near the end with posting pictures. Stay tuned for coming soon full photo albums of our whole trip. It'll take a while to sort through but within a month we should have them up on smugmug at: http://epetti.smugmug.com

Until then, it was fun, and we will be dreaming of future trips and adventures, and look forward to hearing about yours.

Ernie and Aidess
