Love the expressions on their faces! What an amazing experience.

So cool you were able to deliver the photo of the man and his son .. six years later!

"We in Life Lucky" .. love it!

I can't imagine a day that doesn't toss a gentle reminder at this very useful phrase.

Sitting in a warm apartment with a full stomach and a cup of coffee ... We in Life Lucky!

It is remarkable what the women carry on their heads here. Flat baskets of wet concrete up flights of stairs, entire soup restaurants including the tiny stools for the customers to sit on. They take a piece of cloth/scarf and make a little pad for their head, seems pretty stable but of course they make it look easy. You and I would fail at this.

Do you know if the thing between her head and the tray has any sticky stuff to keep the tray in place?

I might last 2 seconds trying to carry a load like that on my head.

You know, it’s been well over ten years since I last contra/square danced and completely forgot the Box the Gnat move. Fortunately our dance community did not require floofy skirts and matchy matchy wear.

I like this idea of you 2 travelling with matching bicycles ...

But I would love to see the parallel universe where you hit the town with matching square dance outfits. Maybe on your next bike tour you could pack some square dance gear and introduce a small village in India to the Allemande Left and Do Si Do .. all wrapped up with a Box the Gnat encore.

Why, thank you, Ardell! That means a lot to us.

Oh, it's just magical up there.

I told Bruce that if I lose my Click Stand the trip is over.

Wow, beautiful shot

Great line: "...worries were just a manifestation of my excessive enthusiasm"

Sanity is overrated. Great post!
