I have been so long in Colombia that I'd all but forgotten about those distant beginnings of this trip, those wide open roads and huge blue skies, the incredible freedom to go anywhere, the ease with which you can be alone with nature. Once outside of America it's all too easy to judge it on its foreign policy, its strip malls, family and societal breakdown, its Hollywood movies, and the rest of its cultural imperialism. I would stop short of saying "America's the greatest country on Earth man!" but: it's definitely got something. I'm home for xmas; will you be? Will we meet up and swap stories? I hope so!

Does this Journey ever end? ;-) Take care, Ant Hey Janette,
