The Awaited Pictures











A note on some of the pictures, although the order may not correlate:

Yes, it’s our beautiful cabin we have come to love. Halloween decorations adorn the room, like the banner of bright orange jack-o-lanterns.

These two smiley critters are our newest roommates, Awoo and Bering. Because… “Awoo…the Bering Sea…That is my heart’s desire…Awoo…the Polar Bears….I love ‘em, I love ‘em, I love ‘em, I love ‘em!”

No, it’s not Halloween it is the nightmare of our bug encounter. Just imagine these critters covering every surface!!

Our laundry treat for the Hotel Department, however the trick was on us because now they are taking our bag and putting it on hold!

The pics of our departure are self-explanatory. Of course we are sporting our Halloween Maryland T-shirts and the rice paddies and clouds are just beautiful. The one image with mostly water is the city center; because it is resized smaller it may be difficult to make out the golden stupa that is the Shwedagon Pagoda.

These pictures are amazing, just amazing. I love the rice paddies and the chocolate water too. You look so great in your t-shirts from Maryland with your bright and shining smiles. I love your room and it looks like your magnetic walls are getting filled up with alot of cute things.To bad your mother did not remember a Halloween card! Your room looks so neat as always and festive with the colorful Halloween banner and your two new white furry buddies in Semester at Sea t-shirts.I especially love how you can see the reflection of the two of you in the bug picture. What a buggy sight! Again, the pumpkins were so unique,in fact I think the one looked a little like the man in the background. And lastly, your gowns will be a very special reminder of your stay in Myanmar for years to come. Good night and Ilove you.Mom

You are most likely eating breakfast or getting ready for class, or better yet still under your covers and sleeping to the wonderful swaying of the ship. It puts me to sleep thinking about it. I must say the pumpkins are imaginative and skillfully carved. I know I never did any carving to compare to that but we still have great memories of the ones we made. What can I say about the gowns? WOW!!! You both are absolutely beautiful. You should have have about 4 dresses made. I bet you were the only students on the ship that had Halloween shirts from your university. GO TERPS! I think the idea your neighbors had for their costume was first rate and should have received the most original idea. Lundy Twins, how cool! I guess the memory of bug city will be something very different to tell about for many years to come. Tell me, how many green bugs does it take to make green split pea soup for all the people on the ship? I have a great receipe. Here we are and it is November 1st and you all still have many adventures ahead of you. You take care and I love you both very much.
