So now that it's February 3, we have less than 4 months to go! Yippee. We have been in Cambodia for over 5 months, and we have been here longer than what we have left. Wow.
Our plan is to leave June 1st so that we can spend the summer in the States. Friends all over the U.S.: be prepared for a Griffin visit this coming summer! We won't be heading out, though, until after we've had an epic bicycle trip.
The plan (as of now and of course subject to change) is to leave PP in 6 weeks. How will we leave? By bicycle. Where will we go? To Vietnam. The anticipated route is PP to Ho Chi Minh. Then HCH to Halong Bay. Distance: 2100k. Crazy? Yes. And we're planning on doing it all on a bicycle with nothing more than two baskets, two saddlebags, and one small duffel.
So these next few weeks are busy cramming in our last few weeks of "me" time and getting ready for the trip and packing. Packing excites me most because bags packed here won't be unpacked until we reach good ole' USA!
The only other new thing for us is that Sila had the chicken pox last week. It was a pretty mild case, so he was in good spirits (and driving us crazy) and is back to school this week. Nothing else really going on here except I've been reading like crazy (see new books posted on the right of my blog) and been teaching a lot of yoga.
Big hugs to all who are reading this. Enjoy your winter because we're hot here!
