It was a long trip home. We flew from Phuket to Seoul, Korea where we spent the day with Katie's uncle Jorge, aunt Araceli, and cousin Aracelita. Then we flew another 10 hours from Souel to Seattle. The time change was such that we spent Saturday morning in Phuket, then Saturday morning again in Korea, and finally a third Saturday morning with family in Seattle. We arrived home to a foot of snow, family parties and holiday food. We were quite lucky to have arrived just in time before the Seattle airport was closed due to snow. This year marks the very first white Christmas either one of us can remember since childhood.
And so we close with the last entry of this blog: "Travis and Katie in Asia". If you have been following along in our adventures for the past two years, then you know more about where we've been than most of our friends and family. For the final entry, we want to share with you a set of images that captures our holidays at home much better than words ever could. There are eight photos in all so you might have to click 'older posts' at the bottom to continue viewing.
This migratory writer thanks you the reader, for sharing in all the ups and downs, blissful moments and strange mishaps, cross-cultural connections and blundering American mistakes... and everything in between that we've experienced in our travels. Thank you for reading and writing back to us while we were on opposite sides of the Earth. It meant the world to us. Merry Christmas.
