Singapore
November 23 - 26, 2007

Christmas came early this year for us on Mico Verde. Our best two friends in the universe paid a visit to our little town and much love was shared by all. Here's an excerpt from an email they passed along post-visit (and post-24-hours of travel time back to Seattle):
