Dear readers! We finally arrived in Sri Lanka and are on our second day in Colombo and are loving it. Above you can see Mike braving a cobra and I actually never have seen him scared like that. I gladly skipped on that experience.

The last two weeks couldn’t be more full of contrasts. We finished our 91 Days in Palermo – spent 2 weeks with friends and family in the US and then flew half across the globe to Sri Lanka, which took 2 days!!!

2 two weeks were wonderful and very sad as well. We had to put our dog Chucky to sleep. She got to be 10 years old, she had cancer in her lungs and was really suffering on her last 5 days of her life. Deciding that it is better to find her final rest was probably the hardest thing I had to do in my life. She was such a good dog and such a world traveler. We got her in Berlin, we moved with her to Ireland and Valencia. Then we took her to Savannah, GA and Buenos Aires. And had a wonderful time with her in Palermo.

That was tough but I had some great highlights as well. I got to celebrate the 1st birthday of my nephew and my own as well. Mike’s parents took me out to the French Lick casino in Indiana. I had a blast.

And before we flew to Sri Lanka we got to spent 8 hours in NYC, to do some sightseeing and to meet friends.

Below you will find couple of random pictures of the last weeks … stay tuned via our For 91 Days Twitter account to find out when we launch the Sri Lanka blog.
