Home to Vancouver

July 15th 2008

I awoke early and made my way to the airport. Reflecting on my trip during the flights: I am happy with what I accomplished in the time I was away.

I need to ask myself, if i did it again, could I have done it better? Well, the answer is "no". However, I do have a list of places I would like to go to or visit. Of course there are places I wished I had gone to but in the end, I can't see everything and one needs these desires in order to keep the spirit alive.

Some of the places off hand I would have like to go to are: Crystal Beach (Northern Colombia), Vultures in Coca (Peru), San Blas Islands (Panama), Bocas del Toro (Panama near Costa Rica), and San Andreas Island (Colombia?)........

These are all mostly paradise like settings but the truth is, when you hang out at one, you don't appreciate the next one as much as the first one. There is something about relative experiences that makes the 2 week vacation from the office in paradise more valuable than visiting another island after you have been taking in the area. My point is that I should come back after I have been away for a while.

I have had a lot of experiences in the past 3.5 months. Almost too many. I need to decompress and reflect on what I just did. The time went fast and I have changed. But how exactly have I changed?
