The End...

As we all know, all good things must come to an end. Sadly, our road trip has ended. While we all agree that this is a terribly depressing thought, you could not pay us enough to get back in that car and drive even a mile anytime soon. We logged over 7,000 miles in just under a month. It has been a whirlwind of an adventure, but I don't regret one second, one penny, or one decision we made. Hands down, one of the best experiences of my life (and coming from the girl who spent 4 months in France... that's saying something).

Above all else though...

Thank you to my mom and dad for saying yes. Thank you to my dad for helping finance some of our more expensive ventures. Thank you Aunt Debbie and Uncle Mike for donating your beautiful Honda Accord. Thank you Honda Accord for not dying on us (especially on those rough, snowy mountains). Thank you Aunt Jan for your generous gas money donation (and for instilling a sense in adventure in each of us since we were kiddos). Thank you to all of the hosts who opened their homes. Thank you to all of the locals for lending a hand. And probably most importantly, THANK YOU TOMTOM FOR NOT GETTING US LOST!

We are so thankful and grateful to have been given this amazing opportunity. It is a month we will NEVER EVER EVER forget.

With love,

Katie, Nicki, and Carly
