I'm back!
It was a lovely, once in a lifetime trip where we were busy and searching and enjoying every moment.
Today though, as I return to the real world, I wanted to post this:

I have a thought-provoking question to catch up on and plenty of pictures to share, but I thought that this list was worth sharing first, and is thought provoking enough all on its own.
During my plane rides, I read Sheryl Sandberg's new book Lean In, and I really reccommend it. That said, we are in the throws of gender and sex battles constantly within our culture, not just at the "top." Yes, I believe in the book's primary thesis - that more women in power will correlate to more human rights and opportunities for women at all levels, but things other than that will also help, and help NOW - fewer assaults on women, less objectification of women, and more equality for people regardless of gender and sexual orientation. There's a lot to do, and a lot going on, so I hope you read the thought piece above and think about how you can apply it to your life.
