The Worst Of With every sunny day comes a little rain. For the most part, weather was not a problem for us during the trip. We enjoyed the rain in Paris. We enjoyed the cold in Scotland at New Years. We tried to stay cool in the heat and humidity of southeast Asia in summertime. But there were some things that were just "the Worst," or more accurately, "at the bottom of the list of places for X ... View Post
Best of the Mora RTW Trip
The Best Of When I asked friends to give me some topics to do for a "Best of" list of our trip, I was surprised by the number of subjects, and the amount of time it took to think about my answers.
