So here we are… 6 continents… 16 countries… 105 blog entries… 2262 posted photos… 15,389 page views… 174 comments… 16 people meeting us along the way… 1 guest blogger… 5 host families… and 113 days later.
This was the perfect trip to take at the perfect time. When else will we be fresh off an engagement, on the verge of starting our careers, with four months of free time? In the middle of the world trip, we came back to Cali for Match Day to find out our fate and were ecstatic to get our #1 choices. As the trip comes to an end, there is still more celebrating to do. We just found a two bedroom condo across the street from the hospital where we will both be doing our internships. Moving day is tomorrow. Graduation is just around the corner. Thanks to all of you who have shared this journey to faraway places and through important milestones in our lives.
That said, we now present you with our best of the best. Feel free to leave us a comment with your own rankings!

“You know, when Melissa writes the blogs, we get history, culture and family. When Leroy writes the blogs, we get sex therapy, a strip club I'm guessing, man-on-man action in the men's room and squid balls. You're such a DUDE!!” from Alea on April 3rd Favorite Song
