Back in the saddle. . .

We're back in the jungle after an all-too brief visit to Hawaii.

We had a great time catching up with friends and food. It was just less than a week and there wasn't enough time to spend with everyone, though we're very thankful for the time we did get to see folks.

It had been three years since we had been back home, and we are not going to wait another three before we get back.

We left Honolulu at around noon on a Monday, flew 5.5 hours to Los Angeles, then had an hour or so before we flew about 5 hours to Miami on a red-eye flight. In Miami, we had 4 hours to wait before the last leg to San Jose (2.5 hours). Then there was a 2-hour drive to get back to the hotel.

Not more than 5 minutes after we got back home (to a raucous reception from Bejuca and Mini-B) a van pulled up and out popped a family of six that had arrived to check in.

We've been pretty much going since then, so apologies for the delay in putting anything up.
