Hallo All!

Ve are having a Vunderfull time and miss you all wery much! We write to you this evening from Nuuk, Greenland while the sun shines through the kitchen window of our host´'s home. They are sitting next to us here at the dinner table as we wash clothes in their vashing machine...ya! We really wish we could post some pictures, but as you will hopefully soon see, we have been in some extremely remote areas. For example, a couple of days ago we had an SUV take us from the airport to the only hotel in Kulusk. From there, we hiked for 2 hours through the snow to actually get to the city. Of course, we could have paid $100 to dogsled our way in (god bless the weak american dollar), but what fun would that be?
Anyways, we hope to have an update soon full of pictures and fun stories (like Tim taking a shortcut and ending up waist deep in snow OR Katherine screaming "Titanic!" as our boat crashes through the ice caps...OMG, Katherine!). Till then, we hope all is well back home.
Love and Peace,
Tim

p.s. For those worried, we weren"t in Iceland when the 6.2 earthquake occured. However, we will be there tomorrow so if you have any tips on how to handle aftershocks...please share :)
p.s.s. Brad, you"re not funny. My "saskwatch"-likness has actually been beneficial. I haven"t even had to wear long-johns because of my man sweater.

Hello Everyone, So glad you can join us as we trek around the world looking for that which may still be discovered. As we take this exploration, we would like to encourage you to "subscribe" so that you may receive an automatic update every time that we have added new entries and photos. We are also glad to have any responses to our pictures and stories. Please know that we miss you all and are anticipating the day that we may travel back to the South and enjoy the rest of our lives with those we love. Until then, however, this travel journal will have to suffice. Peace, Tim and Kather... full info

Only Kat would scream Titanic, I agree OMG. As for short cuts lets not forget the four-wheeler short cut where you discovered the telephone pole, careful but have a great time. Love You Both, Dad T
