Phil and I arrived home this morning after a wonderful two week holiday in Sri Lanka! It was sad to say goodbye to our travel companions (shout-out to Gemily and C-Totes!), but we are happy to be in our own space again - sans mosquitoes, massive spiders, geckos, cockroaches, sand crabs, cold water, barely-there water pressure, etc.
As we walked in the door at 10 a.m., we let out a big sigh and ran for our personal comfort items and activities. I ran to the kitchen and grabbed a big spoon and the jar of peanut butter. Then I headed to the shower and turned the temperature to its highest point. Phil unlocked the rooms and began to unpack the suitcases. Then it was onto laundry....because what is more comforting than getting to work once you're able to relax at home?! (Oh - and he may have slipped out to get me milk for CEREAL! OHHHH, I missed my daily fix!).
After settling in on our own, we teamed-up to make a delicious french toast brunch (with cinnamon from cinnamon island!) and have been watching season three of "Private Practice" ever since. The plan is to celebrate New Year's Eve in EXACTLY this way, with the addition of Domino's Pizza and "fountain drinks"! Phil is also eager to watch the final three episodes of Survivor which I am trying to acquire this very minute. (Sidenote: He's even more into the show, if possible, following our trip to Sri Lanka. He can now climb coconut trees, make shelters using leaves from cinnamon trees, and catch fish in the big ocean waves.)
Our travel stories will be posted in the days to come, as will photos of the beautiful country we visited! We hope you had a WONDERFUL Christmas and we wish you a HAPPY, HEALTHY, and SAFE NEW YEAR!!!
P.S. Sixteen degrees is FREEZING!!!!!! The heater has been turned on for the season (and it wasn't even my doing)!
