Less than a week away.

Taveuni, Fiji

(it really looks like that)

Don't get me wrong--Mike and I have absolutely loved our time in the South Pacific. But, being away from home/your homeland makes you appreciate it more (no matter how much you love the places you are visiting). This past week has made me particularly grateful for the good old US of A. And we leave for home sweet home in less than one week. We're savoring our last few days here, but we're also eager to hop on that plane and see our families on the other end of our flight(s). We can hardly wait for hugs, cereal, and the new adventure awaiting us in San Francisco...

There are no words to describe this.

oops.

I should have learned how to deal with the template designer thing before I tried to spiff our blog up under a time limit.  Oh well.

On the road again...

...soon.

Our time in Tonga is coming to a close. We can hardly believe it! But, we are definitely ready to head home!

Tuesday evening we will fly to Tongatapu and stay in Nuku'alofa until Saturday.

Then we will fly to Suva, Fiji, where we will stay for a few days until we head to...

Taveuni, Fiji, where we will backpack/stay for a little over a week until we head back to Suva for a few days. Then we will fly to...

Nadi, Fiji, where we will stay for a few more days until we go...

HOME.

And while we have loved our experience in Tonga, we are excited to be with my side of the family for a week before we head to...

Cedar City for about a week, where we are also excited to spend time with Mike's side of the family. And then we will head back to Provo/SLC for a few days until we drive to...

San Francisco to find an apartment (there are sooooo many apartments listed as "available today" that we shouldn't have a problem). Then we will drive back to...

Utah for a day, where we will pack up our moving truck and head BACK to San Francisco to move for a currently unknown amount of time.
