From Sarah:
We've been back in the States for almost a week now. We flew into JFK on the 14th of December and my dad was sweet enough to pick us up. I have to say that the first thing I appreciated about getting back to the States was the huge, well-paved roads. (The roads in the developing world are awful!)
We've been visitng my parents in Maine. They live in Yarmouth which is about 5 miles north of Portland. There is a fresh dusting of snow this morning and the pine-tree filled yard looks like it's out of a postcard. We walked down to the ocean yesterday and looked down into the iced-over tide pools that are nestled in the rocky shoreline. The Maine coast is always beautiful to me, even in winter. And it is so quiet! There is no rickshaw motor, no scooter, no honking, nothing!
Since we're not officially all the way around the world yet, we're blogging until we get back to California in about a month. Of course, that is everyone's questin for us "So you had a great trip - now what?!" Well, first we're just eating a lot of good food and enjoying the holidays.
