“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”
— Mark Twain
For some real inspiration, I’ve decided to extend my donations from this post. For every comment on the post, I will donate an additional $1 to the Red Cross to help earthquake efforts in both Haiti and Chile through April 20.

Hi Sarah,
You do not know me, but I am a friend of your Aunt Ilene’s. I have been printing your postings and giving them to your grandmother. She is extremely proud of you. I have a daughter Margaret, your age, who lives and works in London. Further into your trip I will share information so that you can contact her when you reach England. Keep enjoying your trip. I love your postings–I am living each adventure vicariously. Anne Fowler, Loveland, OH
Nice photo.
It’s great photo. It’s like an ancient photograph. I Like it.
@Chris Preovolos and Massillia – Thanks! The picture happened completely by accident, but it’s one of my all-time favorite that I’ve ever taken. The day I left for Halong Bay in Vietnam, our trip was almost canceled due to the fog. The finally let us on our junk ship, and thus, this photo was the result of all of the ships leaving for the bay that early evening.
