Ahh...home at last. We now need a vacation after this vacation!! The 9+ hr flight home was a little trying. There was this kid in front of us that kept on talking...yap yap yap - and it was in a high pitched, loud voice. Sigh...
Anyways, we managed to get home safely. We picked up our dog from the Tams. They weren't there because they went to the Lions game to celebrate Ed's birthday. Happy birthday Ed! So our dog's home now - he's been pretty good except he was whining for a bit at the beginning - not so much now.
We had pho for dinner - a welcome meal. Found that a lot of times - since we're given a short time limit in an area to shop and eat, we usually just get something quick to eat. Most of the times, it was a sandwich or ice cream or something like that. SO having pho was very good. mmmm....
Overall, this trip was very good. Got a chance to see a lot - the history, the cultures, the lifestyles - it was good. It's not a typical relaxing holiday but it was still a great one. I think the only negative place for me was Italy. Just really didn't like the culture and the city there. Not exactly my cup of tea. But everything else was great. If you don't mind spending a great deal of time on a bus, you should definitely try this tour. No planning required! :)
Getting a little jetlagged...8-9 hrs difference...need to sleep soon...would have been better if it weren't for chatterbox kid...g'nite all
