I can’t believe it is almost over! I have had a wonderful time wathing you enjoy such a marvelous trip! I’m with Mom, I shutter to think!!Ha Ha The rocks are very slippery I imagine. Beautiful scenery though and I used to swim in rivers in Va. as a kid. It was truly revitalizing then. It seems your grandparents have some more exciting things for you when you arrive. Might as well keep moving, climbing, swimming, etc. You are really going to need another vacation to SLEEP! I can’t wait to see you, God bless and be careful as always. Love Laura Lee

PS Greg, I hope someday to meet you and yours, it’s been wonderful following you and Michael! Bye now!

Michael, I am proud of your sense of adventure and for this wonderful opportunity to travel in far away lands. These memories will give you a foundation to carry with you as you begin your career preparation and give you a perspective to prepare you to be a citizen of the world.

So, as I’m reading this post I guess you are reliving (deja vu all over again?) July 31 all over again and you are “adjusting” to the hellacious heat. I’m going to miss your posts. Thanks for allowing others to vicariously travel along with you.

Oh, and one more techie question: Do the toilets in Australia flush in the opposite direction from North America?

I think the shoes should be encased along with your passport and other mementos of your trip – maybe a map in the background with a red line showing your journey.

I doubt there would have been photos of that!

Why? They really are quite clean now. I did put a lot of miles on them, though.

I shudder to think what would have been bare if the water had been waist high!

When you get home I am going to throw them in the trash! How many miles do you think you have put on those shoes this summer?

We threw them in the wash, so now they are sparkling clean. Also, New Zealand doesn’t seem to care how much mud you have when you leave, and the US doesn’t care about mud at all.
