Homesick

We are 4 entries behind on our blog but wanted to post a "here and now" candid entry. We are a little sick of being wet (you'll find out why 4 entries from now) and just homesick in general. In addition to intense cravings for Rice Krispie squares (not that these are a regular part of our diet at home- so i'm not sure why), sushi, and good wine, we are really missing family dinners, visiting with friends, and La Senza. Yes, today the favorite one of my two bras broke - I almost cried. I don't think i'll find anything larger than a AA in this country or any of the next four countries that we are visiting.... and then there is Africa, where i'm sure the bra is listed as an endangered species. A couple days ago Adam tried on a pair of shorts to try and replace one of his sad, stained, torn pairs. He couldn't get the largest size past his knees! Anyways, just wanted to let you all know that we miss you and normal sized clothing terribly and we are counting down to August 15th when we arrive home!

Hey Guys. Just stopping to say hi and to check out all the new entries. Sushi and good wine are overrated. The moment you get home, you'll be craving turtle eggs, fried lard cakes and jubjub cola (or whatever the heck you've been eating and drinking over there). And let's face it, Adam always had a little trouble putting on the XL sized shorts didn't he? :)
Okay, enough heckling. Just wanted to make you feel like you were home again.

Awww...I miss you too!

Time speeds by, you'll be back before you know it and maybe even "travelsick" for another adventure!

Hey hey,
Sorry i havent written for ages but am a tad busy getting bigger...... And i know how you get very sad when you havent heard from me. Well here i am ready to let you know that home is never far away and when you get home i agree with Anna you will be wishing you where on the road again, though Kelvin, i too miss the sushi and red wine i believe is never overated.

Stay happy knowing we miss you guys so very much, and cant wait to talk to you.

Just think of all those warm, happy comments Chris would be making if you were here - oh right - actually he would be heckling you and heckling Kelvin's heckling. Despite the way he conveys his love we miss you and our wine is certainly overstocked and ready for your return! Keep enjoying and writing for now though for try as we may we really can't top the experiences you are having there. The La Senza issue does seem more pressing but I say when in Africa . . .
