Heading East

For a while now I have been going west for my travel adventures. Australia. Three trips to Southeast Asia. This time I am headed the other direction. The American Academy of Forensic Sciences meetings are Washington D.C. Despite all of my wandering, I have never been to Washington D.C. As you can expect I am very excited to go. In addition to attending the meetings I am looking forward to visiting the Vietnam and Korean War memorials as well as several of the Smithsonian Museums.


After a week in D.C. I am going to fly to Europe!!! I am going to start off by visiting my good friend Mark, who lives in London these days. Mark and I met in Bangkok in the summer of 2005 and he visited me here in Hawaii later that winter. We had several awesome adventures in SE Asia together and I am very much looking forward to seeing him. We are also going to head over to Dublin for a weekend to see another person we know from SE Asia, Sarah.

There are going to be a total of two weeks in Europe before I spend two entire days traveling halfway around the world to get back to Hawaii.

It should be a great provided I do not freeze to death.
