You know that saying about the journey and not the destination? And the joy of unexpected surprises along the path? Our adventure today reminded me of those nuggets of knowledge as well as highlighted some previously learned lessons. The largest jewels in today’s crown of learning are, “be true to thine own travel style” and “the best experience is not always the most thorough experience.” ...
