Thank you everyone for your support during the difficult time after my grandmother’s passing.  It was a tough time for my family, but I’m glad we were all there to support each other.  I absolutely made the correct decision in postponing my trip.

After a 3 week visit home (in the OC), I’m ready to get back to trip planning mode.  I’ll post an update on the trip as soon as I figure out when and where we’re going.  I’ve also been requested to write a post on how to pack for such a long trip.  I hope you find the posts useful and follow along!
