We're back safe in Rwanda and will get the stories flowing again.

But first, I'm proud to announce that my pants fit again. That's right, in two weeks I porked out enough to return to a 32-inch waist. Plus we brought back a suitcase full of food to hold us over.

Second, it's remarkable to me how easy the transitions were. I expected to be disoriented by all the differences moving from continent to continent. Nope. Just two things blew me away: 1) I couldn't get over the retail experience in the US (Target is amazing) and 2) it's almost scary how quickly restaurants serve food over there.
