Wow -One carry on each!!
You two are amazing. Deb would really be impressed with the luggage. Sometimes when I read your blogs I feel like I have been to all these great sites myself. As much as I miss you I am happy just knowing what a great time you're having seeing all the wonderful countries of the world. Speaking of growing rich, wow, Napoleon Hill gould learn from you.
