“Perfect”

Jeff probably said that literally hundreds of times on the trip. I don’t mention this because it was an annoyance but rather because everything on this trip seemed to fall into place. If we needed to book a flight, we’d get the last two seats on one that had previously been booked for over three months. Twice we flew into cities without concrete plans for where we would stay. Once we stumbled upon a brand new guesthouse with the most friendly and helpful staff imaginable. The second time, we had a gentleman and his wife waiting at the airport for us with a “Mr. Jeff Nyveen” sign and a free ride to their guesthouse.

This trip certainly wasn’t perfect or without it’s bumps in the road. You only have to read Jeff’s post about our New Year’s adventure to understand that. But more often than not, things did work out… almost like it was meant to be. I’m very thankful for that.
