Wow
Sarah: Wow... amazing stories and photos. Fun, fun and more fun. I have to get there to see the glow worms. "Glo little glow worm, glimmer, glimmer... glow little glow worm, glimmer, glimmer...." I used to sing that when I was a kid. Enjoy the rest of the "show" and thanks for sharing. Love the adventure - and sharing it with you and Evan. Happy New Year! Mimi

Sarah, you're adventures never cease to amaze us! Sounds like you & Evan are having a great time!

Nature songs
Hi Sarah: Looking forward to reading your blog when you explore the music of New Zealand. I love the nature music. I wish you would make a recording of all that you "hear" and use it for a future cd. In any event, angels on your trip. Have fun. Mimi (Carmel's friend)

Ending of an Adventure
Hi Sarah: Wherever you will go, people will be interested... you know why? Because you have enthusiam, excitement in your voice (writing) when you share your traveling episodes. So many of us have learned something from you - a youngster, compared to some of us. And yet, you have an "old" wisdom - maybe it's because you look at life as an adventure - something to be explored and explained, instead of thinking how bored you are and complaining that life is just that - boring. Like the movie said... Boredom is as boredom does. All in all, I feel I've been able to share a good part of your adventure with you (beats a postcard) - and I am the better for it. You've left me (someone you only met for an instant at a SheDoo gathering) with a feeling of accomplishment and pride - living through you - learning something new like eating those great chocolate deserts, being at Normandy, roaming through Rome with your father, and many other cool things. Thank you, my dear. And... looking forward to hearing and or reading more about you - with you, by you or through your mom, Carmel. What a good time you've shared. I've enjoyed every minute of your blog and your photos. Thank you! Mimi SheDoo.

You are not alone! Your Mom is so ready to see you and it sounds like your Dad had a great time with you, also. You have had a wonderful experience and I believe you will also go far, as your friend from Italy. On the news today they were talking about the astronauts and I thought to myself, "One day I will be watching Sarah on the news!" Have a safe trip home and I hope I get to see you before you take off again! Oh, Kelly, your Mom, and I went kayaking today. It was great as there were very few boats out. Love ya! Cindy

Vatican
You reminded me that I should visit the Vatican! Thanks for this vicarious glimpse! Diane
