To begin, I never officially concluded the blog from our year travels around the globe; so here it goes. We went to New York, it was New Yorky. Saw a bunch of cousins, uncles, and new baby’s of cousins, which are called second cousins or something. Theres some Jewish Delis, nice parks, a French statue of some large green lady, and a big hole in the ground where two large buildings used to be.
The last year and a half void of world travel has been terrific. Our new dog Sakura is great, living in Oakland is wonderful, good jobs, great friends. The travel bug however, is difficult to shake. No amount of joy achieved from settling down can knock the raw excitement of exploring new places.
So here I sit, in the Oakland International Airport, typing through their free WiFi ridden with pop up ads. The line is forming to board our flight to Denver then on to Cancun. First, a friend’s wedding in Tulum, then off to Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, and back to Yucatan and home in a little over a month.
Our dog is in the care of some friends who WON’T LET ANYTHING HAPPEN TO HER, ANDI & ERIC! The journey ahead should be incredible, I’ll keep the blog updated regularly for its three avid readers (Eric, Regine; and the homeless man I gave my card to who gets free wifi at McDonalds).
To catch a better glimpse of our life since the last blog (as if you care), I take great effort in organizing and updating all of our photos at the same place they have always been:
Until next blog!

thanks for keeping the blog going.
It is one way for us to vicariously enjoy your travels and I am sure you will love to re-read and relive all of this in a few years through your blogs.
I am an avid read. I guess that makes me homeless and a fan of McDonald’s… life could be worse I guess…
