We hadn’t slept that soundly the night before we left Phnom Penh. We were a bit excited to be dragging our broke asses home, and it was an early morning as well.<\/p>\n
And we hadn’t slept that well on the plane. Well, I didn’t \u2013 Alice remembered her eye mask and ear plugs and dropped off just like that.<\/p>\n
But once we got home in our own comfy comfy bed, we just sailed away into the land of nod and didn’t get up until nine o’clock the next morning.<\/p>\n
First order of business was to move a whole lot of pictures and things off the little white computer onto my silver one, partly because I’d taken most of the photos, but mainly because I had a lot more spare space.<\/p>\n
That’s for later though; at the moment we had ‘Waking up In Our Own Bed at Home’ to savour.<\/p>\n
Did it feel like an achievement? Yes.<\/p>\n
Did it feel life-changing? Yes, but hard to say exactly how at this moment.<\/p>\n
Was it worth the money we poured into it (plus a $5,000 debt)? Hell Yes. I think the Financial Crisis thingy shows us that the value of money can change quite quickly anyway. It’s just money.<\/p>\n
But memories are priceless.<\/p>\n
And yes, I could not resist ending our four months of trravel journals with an absurd cliche.<\/p>\n
I just had to do it. For the team. They’re just such a determined bunch, all season long they’ve been trying their hearts out, we’ve been putting the ball in the right areas, and getting all the little ducks lined up in a row, but we just haven’t been getting the results, so it’s great for the team for us to finally get a result.<\/p>\n
Thank you.<\/p>\n
That is all.<\/p>\n
