Trying to Catch Up - Pictures for Tibet

---

Hey everyone,

I had great initial intentions for this entry: to catch up the trip to the point we're at now. Unfortunately I quickly came to appreciate that I have over a month of destinations, stories and pictures to catch up on and that the task of 'catch-up' is next to impossible right now. Thus, it will wait till we get home. I have attached a series of images from Tibet to go along with the last entry though so enjoy.

At the moment we're in Ho Chi Minh city Vietnam and have spent the last two weeks in this vibrant -but hot- country. We have a couple days left to finish up, and then we're off to Singapore till the 28th when we come home.

We're happy and healthy but after three months on the road we're also travel weary, and looking forward to a california burritto and time with a pillow whose softness isn't comparable to that of a large flat rock.

Hope you are all having tremendous and enlightening summers.

Cheers,
Michael
