The End of a Journey

Well, it's over and we are home. I could say that now that we are "seasoned" travelers in handling lengthy air travel and that the trip was so much easier because of that. However, the truth is that the  second and longest leg of our journey home was easier mainly because the seat next to me on the airplane was EMPTY!! We were therefore able to spread out which enabled us to sleep considerably more than we did on the way over. Now, let me add that Philip has slept 16 out of 24 hours since we got home, so that has helped also!

We had a memorable trip and have already discussed what a second trip might look like. But it is nice to be home. Our cat remembered us and the two Texas grandkids seemed very happy to have us back. 

Tomorrow, we will be back in the bell shop and our thinking will turn to getting out those orders that came in while we were gone. 

As I took a quick look back over my pictures, I thought I would just share a last few highlights.

Colors of a robe on a Buddha in Anghor Wat.

In all the little towns we travelled through, pots full of flowers and plants were in front of all stores, business and most homes.

Beautiful pool full of lily pads in Cambodia.

A street sign in Kanchanaburi.

A sad commentary, but a more positive use of a bomb casing.

Some homes were on the immediate side of the road.

Others were high in the air. 

Buddhas were, of course, everywhere.

Philip found street food where flavors were coded by "Little Dots" just like our bells. 

                                                          

That's all for now. Thanks for following our trip
