Home at Last

Six countries, four months, and we finally made it home.  Now comes the fun part.

While I was traveling I bought a lovely alpaca overcoat and stupidly sent it back to Washington, DC for safekeeping.  This is the result:


Enjoy.

Throughout the trip South America has given us little gifts to treasure - rainbows, chicken feet bobbing in soup, termites, etc.  This time she went out with a bang.  We left Panama on Saturday evening and arrived in DC early on Sunday morning.  By Monday afternoon I was in Georgetown Hospital for emergency surgery.  It was nothing serious, but it would have been really problematic in a South American hospital.  So for a parting gift we got North American health care.

It is good to be home.
