Yes, we're back. Did you miss us? Probably didn't even notice we were gone. Sniff. Anyway, I have lots of photos and some nice video of some Tasmanian devils. I'm currently having an argument with our memory stick so I'm not sure when you'll get to see the pictures but hopefully soon.
In the meantime, let me fill you in on things we did we did before we left (I mean, apart from a whole lot of cleaning and packing). It was Valentine's Day. Stephen got a cute card, breakfast and a special playlist (see below). I got a huge, handmade card and some flowers. A woman from Florida called to talk to me about submitting her manuscript (no!) and wished me a happy Valentine's Day. That was nice. In the evening, I made heart-shaped (yes!) chicken fried tofu and steamed vegetables for dinner and then we went with Hugo and the Captain to Galapagos for their Valentine's Day show: burlesque, hot jazz, etc. We didn't like the burlesque (bad implants!) but we did like the hot jazz. If you get the chance, we do recommend seeing Michael Arenella and his Dreamland Orchestra. Much fun.
About the trip soon. Promise!
