Phew! In a word, whirlwind comes to mind that describes the chaotic past couple of weeks! Actually, I think I’ve spent more time rushing around and then sitting in airports and on planes than I have actually on the ground with friends and family. Having less than 24hrs to unpack from Mexico, and repack for Prague, I decided to spend a few days with family back east before continuing the global adventures in Europe. But don’t let the “family time” fool you… most of my time back east was spent doing taxes, completing administrative errands for my summer internship, as well as preparing my final term paper comparing the prospective business environments of Chile and Argentina. By the way, did you know that the Argentine Spanish is heavily influenced by the Italian language – so much so that words are different, verb tenses are different, even structure and delivery are different.
However, in between the chaos, I did manage to spend some amazing quality time with my family back East hitting up charming New England towns like Gloucester (the actual historical setting of where the movie “A Perfect Storm” takes place), Rockport and Port Anne, North Hampton and even Boston (well, mostly the Logan Airport, terminal E, Gate E7A, 5th chair from the window, 2nd row). More on that 13 hour delay at Logan later.
Anyway, check out the pictures of New England below… beautiful. Although, after nearly freezing to death this morning, I am not sure I am much suited for this winter stuff. Southern California has ruined me.

Right, on to Prague. Well, hopefully. That all depends on bloody British Airways getting their act together. Man, you’d think I was on AeroMexico?!! ;)
