  3. Where's the introspective/lessons-learned post? Lest this be for naught! Or are you saving it for your big sacrament meeting talk?

  4. If you do actually ever live abroad, I vote for London. I have loved your entire adventure but would only have nerve enough to do the European countries. Shortest plane trip! Fly to London and do the rest by boat or train. Plus they speak English.

    I was glad to read that you actually found good food in London. There is hope. We had terrible meals in London. I forgot to ask you last night if you ever found my orange pop.

    Thanks for the spices straight from Morocco. I am going to brag to all of my friends that I have the real deal when it comes to spices.

    I can hardly wait for 1 a.m. to arrive. Meanwhile I am frantically cleaning house for your arrival. Let the party begin in the Burg!
