For three weeks, Sheila, Addie, and I headed up to Vancouver Island to visit my friend Pamela, whom I met five years ago at the Great Synagogue in Budapest.  The adventure included spending wonderful time with friends and family in Dublin, Portland, and Bainbridge Island.

I decided to not include a day-to-day itinerary or travelog for this 3,128 mile trip.  Rather, I’ve grouped my photos by topic:

A few reflections now that I’ve been home for nearly 24 hours…

  • I love traveling!  AND I love my home!  Although Addie is quite comfortable, my home seems almost luxurious in comparison. A big sink, dishwasher, washing machine, clothes dryer, large shower, TVs, reliable internet, couch for cuddling Sheila… I am so fortunate to have both the fun of Addie and the privilege of a wonderful home.
  • Sheila is a great traveler.  She’s flexible, friendly, and fond of exploring.  I hit the jackpot when I adopted her last October.
  • I’m bummed I didn’t take more photos of all of the friends I hung out with during this trip!  I know I tried to stay in the moment and not document every detail, but I wish I had photos of the amazing people I got to see.  Next time, be ready for me to snap your photo!
