Hello Laura and Dom, Wow, wow, wow!!! I had so much fun reading this last tale!! Thanks so much for it! Although I've been to most places that you mention in this story, I really do envy you for being able to travel this long right now. Reading your stories makes me seriously think about quitting my job and leaving to travel the world again on an open end ticket just like 10 - 15 yrs ago when life had much less responsibilities ... Guys, enjoy ALL of this, even if there are crappy times every once in a moon!!! Be safe, be healthy and continue to have a fantastic journey!! Can't wait to read more :-) Love - Yvonne
