Catching up with some history

We started this blog in 2008 so we coould keep our family informed of our travels, but we have been travelling together since 2000, and internationally since 2002.

This means the country list you see in this blog hasn't covered everywhere we've been. In fact, the map below gives you a better idea of our travels over the years.



Here's a summary of the long trips we took before we started the blog. Only major cities and attractions are listed. Some day I might include some photos (though for the earliest trips we didn't have a digital camera).
