Well, hello there. Yes, I'm still here and no, I still haven't finished Europe. I am currently in Nicaragua, in the lovely city of Granada. However, although I have internet access, I am unfortunately unable to post pictures on my site. Therefore, you will have to use your imagination for how my European Adventure ended. Suffice it to say, we made it home in two pieces (Rebecca was one piece and I was the other). We are no longer "us." After leaving Ukraine, we spent time in Eastern Europe, exploring large cities such as Bucharest, Budapest, Prague, and Vienna, as well as the smaller town of Sighisoara. Sighisoara was the home town of the man who inspired the Dracula legend...pleasant guy! We also spent a little time in Poland...went to see Auschwitz as well as the cities of Krakow, Warsaw, and Lodz. Christmas with my parents was fantastic. We spent the time in Bavaria, taking in Munich, Salzburg, and various other small towns in the area. The Christmas Markets were a definite favorite! After Bavaria, we took a plane to England where we rented a car for a week and a half. We had the opportunity to visit a couple of friends we had made in Switzerland at L'Abri. Matthew lives in Newcastle and Margo in the Lake District. Continuing South, we eventually made our way to London where we turned in our car and spent the final few days there.
Phew...how's that for a whirlwind tour of our final month? Sorry for the lack of details...when I'm able to post pictures, I'll try to fill in the blanks. For now, this wraps things up.

Well, its about time you started to bring closure to your European adventures. You need to do a thorough job of it so we will know what really happened. I mean, who can really, really trust everything that sister of yours says?

Yeah, Rebecca has a tendency to embellish, doesn't she? But don't tell her I said so...
By the way, I tried to post on Rebecca's new blog, but couldn't get past some requirement to set up a new account with one of about 6 or 7 different pages or websites. What gives with that? Why isn't it the same as before?
Dad
Oh, well! If you can't beat'em ... I have created a google account so that I can post to Rebecca's blog and appropriately adopted the name "Wise One." Seeya in cyber space.

And in one fell swoop, we draw Europe to a close. Very neat!
glad to hear you made it home alive...haha
