So, We're on our way to New York, the Big Apple to see Masiji. After about 2-3 days in NY, we'll get on a plane and after a sixteen hour flight, we'll be in India!!! We miss Poppi already. Mommy says she started missing him yesterday. :( When we were heading to the airport in Anchorage, at around 5:00 this morning Alaska time, we saw a fox crossing the road ahead of us! We're sorry we couldn't get a picture of ...

... special room, they should have stopped the plane, escorted him and his luggage off the plane and done a thourough security check on both of them. But they didn't... this guy just say there playing dumb, like "Oh, I'm sorry" or "but it's too full up here". So this male flight-crew man actually personally took this guy's luggage and hauled it up to the first-class section and found some overhead bin up there and stashed it up there. And this dude just got to sit in his ...

Rebecca, being the breakfasty kind of person that she is, immediately started taking about food as soon as she woke up this morning. So we found this cute little diner a couple blocks down from the hotel called "Dave's Diner". It was your typical greasy spoon bit of americana. The food was good, the service was just like something you'd ...

... anyhow if I did then it would have been lost upon my arrival into Houston (George Bush) Airport. There as you know I was interrogated by the American Gestapo. However, surviving those pack of wolves meant in my mind that the real creatures might just be a tad friendlier. And so I arrived at my home for the next 12 weeks and promptly suffered from altitude and jetlag sickness, amidst concerns that I would waste away through lack of food ...

... must include diamond stud earrings.... and.... if Shane really loved me... he would buy me ice blue diamonds as a memory of our time here in Alaska. Yeah!? It is just so very very different from our last experience. However, once we got in to the idea of a floating mall we find ourselves having a good time. No, I don't have any new (or old) diamonds, but I'm having a lot of fun.

... I read in 3 days flat. Now some would simply laugh at that and say, 'What, you stupid poof?, I can read a book in 90 minutes, and it's got no pictures neither'. However I am not, and don't pretend to be a great reader and have in fact only read about 7 books in my life, and that includes 2 that were pop up. Not something to be proud of perhaps and maybe contributes to my appalling speling and overall ...

... Wonderful hospitality and great company. Rich promptly walked into the mesh door unaware of its existance - luckily no damage - Rich was ok too. There was alot of smoke in the air due to the forest fires and visibility to the mountains hazed over. Thurs 16th Aug Went intoBozeman town for breakfast (which as a large mining history and an interesting appeal in its old buidings, but not enough appeal to make us stay) then we set off for Yellowstone National Park Jellystone here we come!. ,

... is necessary, but you lose a lot of the experience of getting places by just flying over them, instead of driving or training along on the surface. Before I boarded the train, I had a familiar knot in my stomach. It happens at the beginning of every solo trip I take. When I was in the terminal in Atlanta or Chicago, or wherever I was, before I was to board my first solo flight to Europe, I felt the same way, but more pronounced. I'd never taken a solo trip and I was going to a place ...

... an overscheduled last hour, even with ample time before that. The yin/yang balance, suffering/bliss, the content moment now the reward for the hurry. Sunshine until departure, everything working out as it need be. 48.5 lbs, yeah! Everything fits, the smaller the underwear the better we see...

Friday morning we were supposed to go to Megan's end-of-the-year picnic, but Karen took us to a beautiful park on Lake Samamish instead. As we looked up we saw a Bald Eagle soaring, soaring, then diving at the water where she nailed a fish and took it to her nest. You guessed it...no camera!! That was the last time on the vacation that Natalie and I were without ...
