I've been gone a long time.  I've struggled the last little while trying to decide whether to finish this travel diary or move along.  A lot has changed in my life...many things I need to purge though probably not online...others would be best forgotten altogether...but this trip was an important part of my transformation and so - I suppose -- the story deserves its telling.
I need to collect my notes from the house or from storage, or try to find them in the boxes I brought with me.  It will be my Christmas project.
