We're back

Well, all trips eventually must come to an end. But boy, was it a good ride! We ended up setting foot in 8 countries over the span of approximately 3 weeks. Through the course of the trip, we slept in a penthouse, cruise cabin, hotel, etc. What a trip :-).

We probably have 1000 photos, but you'd probably be both annoyed and restless if you went through 'em all. So here are the top 10 photos from the trip for your viewing pleasure.
1) Us in Nyhavn in Copenhagen, Denmark. Literally translated, Nyhavn is "New Harbor." Notice how Jimmy matches the yellow buildings in the backdrop :).
2) The incredible crib where we crashed, thanks to the Hoovers and a charity auction win at HBS. Julia, your parents are AWESOME!
3) Ma, Lisa & Linda in front of the massive structure known as the Crown Princess.
4) The huge ornate Cathedral in Helsinki, Finland. You probably didn't notice, but we're on the steps!
5) Us in front of the Palace in Oslo, Norway. We stopped in Oslo on a Sunday and it was pretty quiet.
6) The Changing of the Guard in Stockholm is pretty spectacular, complete with cannons, horses, metal hats, a full band, etc! One of the horses almost went spastic on the crowd.
7) This is the Church of the Holy Ghost in Tallinn, Estonia's historic Old Town.
8) The Hermitage in St. Petersburg, Russia is over-the-top ridiculous. Enough said.
9) Gdansk, Poland was a bit of a hidden gem. Linda & JT in front of the main city square.
10) Us with the Parents in Iceland with the Kerio Crater in the background. It was formed by a massive volcano a few thousand years ago. Iceland is full of natural beauty, fresh water and surprisingly delicious Thai food :).

If that wasn't enough and you're hungry for more, check out the expanded (but still condensed) version at our Picasa link.

Well, back in Boston, things are regaining a sense of normalcy. Except all of our friends are moving on to the "real world" and we're standing by, watching them pack their life possessions in 30 boxes or so. That'll be us in a year! In the meantime, Jimmy starts his internship in a week and Lisa has the summer off - she's off to San Diego on Thursday for her cousin Ai's graduation from UCSD. Congrats to all HBS and HKS 2008 graduates!
