A picture is worth a thousand words...

So clearly, we aren't going to win any blogging prizes this year! We fell a bit behind, and we've gotten an earful about it, so here's my logic... since we aren't doing such a great job with words, I thought we would try pictures. We have taken hundreds of pictures on our trip, and since the pictures usually interest you more than our rambling stories, I thought we would put together a photo album of our last two weeks in South America (with descriptive captions) and post that to catch us up.

Here is a link to the photo album on Picasa, as well as a few more quick updates so that we can start fresh:
  • Amit and I have made a decision on business school... University of Chicago Booth School of Business will be our home for the next two years!
  • We are currently in Israel visiting Amit's family and relaxing before our Asia adventure.
  • We were able to go home to Boston for a few days between South America and Israel, and we had an awesome visit with Paula and Gidi, as well as Dorit, Shimrit, and Daniel, who trekked up from Philly to hang out for the weekend!
  • We've solidified our Asia plans (for the final 3 months of our travels).  We are excitedly heading to Beijing first to visit with my friend from college, Courtney, and then we'll make our way down the eastern side of China to Vietnam, then Cambodia, and finally Thailand (to relax on the beach before we have to re-enter the real world).
  • Happy birthday to my cousin, Shylie!  Her birthday is TODAY!


Northwest Argentina, Iguazu Falls, and Buenos Aires

I hope you like our pictures and will forgive us for having neglected you for so long!  No promises, but we will try to be better.  Our visits to Jerusalem, Masada, and Nes Ziona in the next few days should produce some stories and more pictures to share.

Lots of love,
Dena & Amit
