Us: For our last week of travel, we are going on vacation.
Reader (if any): What? Haven’t you been on vacation for ten months already?
Us: No.
Reader scratches head and thinks we’ve gone bananas

Cue music: Yes, we have some bananas….

It’s true we’ve had a break from our routines AND we’ve visited some of the world’s most beautiful and interesting places. But we’ve been (trying to be) travelers – getting to know a place, its history and its people rather than lazing through largely unaware. But this week we will (try to) put life on hold altogether. No school-work, no work-work, no blogging. We will just be lazing around largely unaware of all but one fact: at the end of every vacation, you go home.

So thinking of our last experience as our vacation is helping us process the fact that our ten months of travel is coming to an end.

Time to put on my flip flops and beach hat….
