Some thoughts

Whilst drunkenly walking back from adams morgan last night, val and I thought that it would be a good idea to start our year long adventure in mexico and then venture south into other parts of el mundo. After that, who knows? So I thought it would be good to divide our trip into quarters.

First quarter
Latin America! This is a comfortable region to start off in because the language barriers are less extreme and it's close to home. It's like the baby step of traveling without having to go to western europe.

Second quarter
Africa! This is still close to home as two of us have traveled there. Much of africa (west and east) speaks a great deal of english. It's a great place and would be awesome during the beginning of the 2006 (as opposed to being there in july).

Third quarter
The South Pacific! After six months we will be experienced in the nuances of travel abroad and will be better prepared for a voyage into a very unfamiliar part of the globe.

Fourth quarter
Who knows? Maybe some time to travel alone or to revisit some of our SST homes. Maybe we could leave this part completely open and see where fate takes us. I don't know.

Keep in mind these were just suggestions; but remember kids, we will have to decide at some point.
