Today we head for the French village of Akaroa very close to our final destination, Christchurch. It seems hard to believe that we have only five days left on this 2-1/2 month journey. A journey that has spanned soothing tropical beaches, fresh machete chopped coconuts, and cruise ship loving care, with edge of the world beauty of glaciers, penguins, and frigid turquoise waters. We have met people we will never forget, slept in a few beds that we are happy to forget, and walked trails whose imprint seared into our souls. I believe we are all willing to go home and talk has begun about homeward plans. Nobody is Ready to go, desperate to be Back. Of course we never really Go anywhere because where we have been comes with us. Our home travels with us on baggage that is never full, never overweight and if our attitudes are correctly focused, we are always seated in first class.
Below is one of my favorite lupine photo and a mother and daughter (can you see the resemblance?). Now it's onward to the land of baguettes, crepes and stinky cheese.
mother and child. Genes at work
