A VERY late The End

The blog was never finished properly, as visions of America, American food, and family began to fill our thoughts. What is important, is that this blog finds closure:

Four years later, and it is a pleasure to read back through our escapades. We met many new people, encountered many new cultures, and saw many new, incredible places across Europe.

Most importantly, we discovered a lot about ourselves. Kelsi and I shared some difficult times - emotionally, mentally, and physically. Our friendship grew over long train rides, delicious dinners, robust wines, castles, cathedrals, and mountains. It was also tested by new and old relationships, television and Dr. Pepper starvations, and (to us) an incredibly scary night that changed us forever.

Fortunately, Kelsi, we made it through all of this. We are also the better for it all. Thank you for traveling parts of the world with me, especially for showing me how to have fun, let go, and believe in other people.

I can't wait for the adventures that await us...
