Hello anyone who is still reading this blog!
Naveed recently got me a wonderful gift for Ayyam-i-Ha that made me remember all of our wonderful times as the Wandering Two and think about this blog and our lone reader---my dad ;) Anyways, Naveed got me a personalized map of the world on a board and color coded pins for us to mark all the trips we each took and all of the trips we took together. We had a lot of fun sticking pins in the board, remembering our adventures in each of the places we have been so far and making plans for future travels ---because we want to travel, not only because we want to stick more pins on our map!
We did miss out on blogging about one amazing trip here and that's probably because the whole family went together to Australia and Vanuatu to visit Nura and Faran this past November/December but just in case, below are some of our favorite pictures from some of our adventures during that trip. Of note is the celebration of Nura & Faran's second wedding celebration, thrown for them by the chief of the village near where Faran grew up in Vanuatu---an incredible experience for all of us!
