back in the US

After a fun night on the town I saw the sun rise in Bangkok, got an hour of sleep, packed my bag, got my last Thai Ice Tea and headed to the airport for 20 hours of travel. Then a stop in SF. Then a few more hours to Boston.

It was hard to leave, but I know I'll be back with the Peace Corps in a few weeks.

As I was flying I started thinking about all the travel I did this year: New Orleans, Alaska, Mexico, Israel, lots of times between Boston & SF, SE Asia: Hong Kong, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, not to mention driving across the US. And I was thinking about all the traveling that consisted of. Here are some numbers I came up with for 2004:

Number of Hours in a plane: 180
Days that adds up to: 7.5
Percent of my year on a plane: 2
Number of airports: 20
Number of Countries: 8
Number of Hours on a bus: uncountable....
