2 Months...How time flies!

Well, we've been away for two months now and we thought we would give a quick overview of our thoughts and feelings so far. 

Things we miss
  • FAMILY- it's quite easy to take for granted being able to talk to your family whenever you want
  • Friends- we have made some friends out here but it's just not the same
  • Laundry- it has been a bit more difficult than we anticipated 
  • "Rules of the Road" in the US- Southeast Asia even makes us miss NYC drivers
  • Our bed! and TWO pillows each
  • Drinking water out of the faucet
  • Sanford's brunch
  • New York City

Things we've learned
  • Not everything will go your way- we knew this but it has certainly been reinforced a couple of times
  • Sometimes you need a vacation from traveling- traveling can be exhausting!
  • We like planes more than buses
  • We like hotels more than hostels or sleeping in a car
  • Put your sneakers IN your bag, not strapped to the OUTSIDE
  • Sometimes last minute plans are the best
  • We love being on boats- 16 of them so far on this trip
  • How to cook our own Thai food

Top things we've seen
  • FIJI
  • Sydney Opera House
  • Great Barrier Reef
  • 12 Apostles on Great Ocean Road
  • EVERYTHING in New Zealand- we can't wait to go back!
  • Halong Bay, Vietnam
  • Angkor Wat Temple at sunrise


HAPPY EASTER!
