So I wrote the previous entry when I first arrived and have held off from posting it (so mom didn't worry and think I didn't live in a nice place).  I knew it was a shock that would pass quickly as I got settled in here in Vicosa.  I do think it is important ... Read more >

I am home and longing a bit to be "homeword bound"

Tue, 23 Mar 2010 | By msteven6 | Views [602]

I am trying to be optimistic, but as you can probably tell then homesickness is setting in.  I was told this would happen, "the first month you are excited, the next period of time - different for everyone - you are homesick, then once you have ... Read more >

Way to go for the team that put the health care reform together!  After watching President Obama's speech of 'celebration & call to action' last night, I was struck by the lack of civility in Congress.  Several who expressed it best are -   Update ... Read more >

We had a good ride by Greyhound bus from Orlando up to Tallahassee, the bus is not a patch on the ones we used to ride in South America but ok for shorter journeys. In Tallahassee we waited a while at the terminal and talked a bit with a young man ... Read more >

Writing this back home in Salt Lake in the wee hours of the morning - awakened by jet lag, but not feeling too bad. One month and one circumnavigation of the globe later than my first days in Kuwait. Parts of the trip now seem like a dream - the people ... Read more >

Never Again

We left the family on Monday evening, around four o'clock.   We were scheduled to get into Munich at around 8.   One of our connecting trains was late by fifteen minutes, which wound up compounding the other three connections and meant that we would ... Read more >

Our return to Baden-Baden was easy and relaxed.   We arrived at the train station and hunkered down on the internet in order to figure things out about the bathhouse we intended to visit.   We put our belongings in a locker and took off. Baden-... Read more >
