The only bad thing about adventures like this is that you blink and you're on the plane heading home already. They're flying back tomorrow. Hope they had the adventure of a lifetime and I can't wait to see the pics and hear the stories.

Howdy All :)

We are all home safe and sound 8)

I can't thank Heather and Regina enough for their leadership, patience and kindness. This adventure and life long dream would not have been possible without our Captain Heather -- she completely organized the trip (route, transportation and lodging), adjusted our itinerary as necessary to keep us safe, and demonstrated the patience of a saint. I also owe a debt of gratitude to Heather's first lieutenant Regina.

Trip report and pictures to follow -- still catching up with family and life.

Miles of smiles from the Bloody Blonde :D
