You two know how to travel!!! Looks like a great trip! Can't believe you rode for so long.
Michelle, you saw a glacier between Banff and Lake Louise on our trip in 1986 - you probably don't remember.
Stay safe, Love Beth
Amazing! Hey guys! All that scenery is AMAZING! I can't believe how cool the mountains look. Armando looks pretty sweet too haha. Hope you guys are having an awesome time there so far!
Love Kevin
Back on the road! Hi Michelle and Travis,
What a surprise to receive an update from your blog! How exciting that you are in South America. We will be heading that direction in December - Peru and Ecuador. It's great to see your smiling faces in the photos. We wish we were there with you playing Corporation!!
Happy travels,
Elizabeth

visa what other documents did you need, my son is flying on the 18 th.
Do you know if french have problems with the visa?
In how many days did you finally got your visas
Great info guys! The visa situation is also problematic for other Chinese origins, such as Singapore chinese, and Malay chinese, even they have to get a visa this year being told 'Until further notice', so we westerners are not alone. We will be following you to Beijing next week...very excited. Great blog!
Wicked :( each time you guys post a blog, it reminds me how much I miss you, and how much I wish I was there with you. Poor Travis...Didnt get his dream :Phaha. Kudos to you guys for even going near that snake.....or are you just using the...20X optical zoom or however much your camera is as a cover up? haha. Cant ait to see you in may:D Love ya both. Kev
Happy to See You It's amazing what a little email in-box maintenance can lead to...
Travis, I'm so happy to finally catch up with your travels. You can imagine how lovely these moments have been while I lived your trip vicariously. Thanks so much for sharing... Enjoy!
Guys, Indonesia looks AMAZING!! Now I wish we had gone there instead!!! No, we still had a great time and saw tons where we were. The sunrise around those volcanoes looked stunning...great pics!!!
Sweet Wow. I would be really scared climbing up the volcano....I hope it was inactive. tee-hee. I also can;t believe you guys made that wood carving! Yeah boy! I showed my teacher (Mr.Neate) your last blog, and he first looked at it after i told him you guys were my brother and sister and hes like "And they're drinking!?!" Funny, funny. Im going to be on a 3 night field trip when you guys get back :( Love you both so much, Kevin

By the way I really love the photo of the two monks walking down the street in a past blog. It looks like you are using special effects in some of your photography.?
Cheers and happy travels.

We got married in June of 2007 and figured our backpack through Asia trip had to happen now or never, so we quit our jobs, sold our cars, rented our condo, and booked our plane tickets. Now it's time to teach in Japan and then travel through Southeast Asia!
May, 2008
We arrived safely back in Toronto, and we have to get back to real life! We're trying to get the last few entries of our travels posted so please bear with us!
March, 2009
We have continued our travels with a short visit to South America: Chile and Argentina!... full info
