2009 March, 14 - The end of our South America and Antarctic Journey


Pack-up! The party's over - and yes, we are sad.

We just got back from the most amazing 82 day journey you could imagine, arriving on Wednesday, March 11th, 2009.

When we left Fort Lauderdale in mid-December we were unsure about life on a ship for so many days. We can assure you - it is not difficult! What a wonderful way to travel.

We were absolutely excited to be visiting so many exotic places - places we've dreamed about, read about and watched on TV. We are extremely fortunate that we were able to make this trip happen at this time in our lives. Every port of call provided a glimpse into the lives of so many people. It was an amazing experience. Our travels were filled with visits to beautiful places - amazing wonders of the world. From day one we were filled with excitement, eager to explore every area. But most of all, we wanted to experience the culture and meet the local people - to hear about their lives. And boy, did we ever get to do just that.

When you are ever bored - or have trouble sleeping - click onto our photo album. At some point I will get caught up and post my short stories about our experiences. You may have already read a few that are posted in this blog - but there are many, many more that haven't been included yet. For now, let the photos take you there.

Chao!
