SherriOct. 22: We are back in Lisbon. Our Southern Portuguese circle is complete. And tomorrow morning, we will cross the big pond called the Atlantic Ocean. But there’s still a lot of ground to cover before I sign off for a while.
Last night, we did a little ritual.

SherriSep. 5: We had a bit of a groggy start to the day. I slept like a rock, but my body was running slow due to the shitty Chinese food from last night. Michael did not sleep well, due to the party in the alley and in the apartment next door.

SherriSep. 6 and 7: I am back in Eugene now. It took the better part of the day to travel from Victoria to Eugene. But I will back track to yesterday morning. We had a whole other fun filled day in Victoria, so let me not brush over that.

SherriThe appeal of Zihuatanejo is undoubtedly the beaches. Of course, the geography gives rise to the food and shapes the people and the culture, so it’s hard to separate them all (the way I am attempting to do when writing about my trip). But still, at the end of the day,

SherriIt’s 10am and I am watching the sun peek over the Chugach Mountains. It’s a sight I could get used to, this is for sure. Dan wanted to go for a vigorous morning walk and I am catching up on blogging. Always a challenge to write when traveling, as there is more adventuring to be had.

SherriIt’s amazing how wiped out we are, but I guess a day of hiking, getting cold, and soaking in 104 degree water can do that to you. I sat back at the cabin we’ve been calling home for a few nights, remarking how much living I fit into five hours today.

SherriI am back in Eugene and in a relative sense, sweating like a pig, since it’s 40 degrees here.
Yesterday we woke up early and cleaned the cabin and got ready to roll out to the Yukon Quest, the annual 1,000 international sled dog race.
…
SherriToday is cooler, I can tell, simply by the open window in the kitchen and the cool air drifting in through it. Yesterday was a very full day and I hope I can recall all the details, before they blend together, like a nice creamy soup on a cool, autumn day.

SherriIt’s a rainy afternoon in Paris, or perhaps I should say, it’s a dumping cats and dogs afternoon in Paris. After what has been a series of comedy of errors for the first half of the day, I am taking a bit of a reprieve. I am sitting here enjoying a cup of tea and doing some blogging.
