We had dinner this evening with Sten's mom, uncle John and Carlotta, and his cousin Bob and his wife and son. During dinner Bob asked us dozens of questions about our trip. As with so many other conversations about our travels, I found myself having a hard time explaining it, the vastness of the distances, the pristine splendor of being in truly wild places, the extreme highs and really deep lows. So I found myself telling the same few anecdotes over and over. I'm afraid that over time my memories of our adventure are going to turn into a series of soundbites. And so once again I find myself very grateful for having this blog to look back on.
