...and I'm back. I feel bad for taking so long to post the rest of these blog entries but it wasn't really on the top of my list of things to do when I got back and without a reliable internet connection (I'm using a 'free' internet connection from a neighbor that cuts out quite frequently), it makes it a bit hard to view my routes on Strava and Google Maps online while cross-referencing to my photos to see exactly where I went that day and on what roads, through what towns, and passing by which notable locations. I figured I'd take advantage of some free time (even though it's 55 degrees outside and I should be getting some riding in now instead of later this evening in the dark) to knock out a post or two. I was discussing my trip with some friends last night at a birthday party so that sort of inspired me to get online and start writing the last nine days worth of posts chronicling my journey. My recollections of the day's events might be somewhat hazy (another reason why I should have done this earlier and why relying on a laptop that could only be used for a few hours without an electrical socket on the trip wasn't exactly ideal for updating daily) but hopefully with pictures and a route I should be able to reconstruct the day's ride and activities pretty well. I guess we will find out shortly...
