We're Ba-ack (Coming Soon To A City Near You)

We made our North American landfall on the eastern coast of New Jersey at a little past 2:30 in the afternoon on Thursday, the 13th of September. Our unforgettable around-the-world journey had comprised 221 days, 23 countries, and over 80 distinct cities and towns. Along the way, we had met up with over 40 friends and family members. Our cumulative air miles travelled were enough to circumnavigate the Earth's Equator three times. We had seen beauty, generosity, opulence, suffering, squallor and resilience. We were humbled, touched, enlightened and exhausted. Given Kaberi's fondness for itemization and Vik's penchant for irreverence, we thought it only appropriate to conclude this blog with a list. We hope you enjoyed the ride in pictures and in words.

Congratulations! What a ride it was (especially for us who got to live vicariously through you)! Can't wait to catch up on the phone and in person.

Glad you're safely home. I am going to miss checking your blog for the latest posting. Thanks for much for letting me be a vicarious part of your journey. You have given me some great new experiences and jogged the memory quite a bit about some of our "shared" experiences. For all the energy and effort you put into your blogging, for all the corny and clever puns, for all the fabulous pictures, thank you both!
