Wait.....what?
"Oh by the way, we're going around the world...." :peepwall:


What an amazing gift you've given yourselves and congratulations on being selected as part of Team USA. What an honor!

Robb your blog is great! Love the passport backgrounds. Nice!! And the night photos from China and Tiananmen Square are beautiful. Great composition and lighting. And yes, I'm "borrowing" a couple of your pics too.

Can't believe you got to talk a stroll on the Great Wall of China. How cool is that? Way to man-up on the frog legs too! And nice new haircut. Aerodynamic for less drag in the boat?

Hope you two have a safe trip home. Hurry up, I'm sure Bella misses you terribly.

Awesome Blog guys!

I cant wait to hear the stories first hand.

I have always wanted to go to Prague. You just expect to see secret agents and high speed car chasses.

<oh yeah, don`t get us started on Bella. We miss her dearly, especially since in Prague and Vienna people take their dogs EVERYWHERE (more on that too)

Crikey! What an awesome trip, I'm so envious!

Blog looks great and photos are incredible. Geez, while I sit here at my computer at the office you guys are travelling the world and enjoying life. Just reading your blog and writing my response is inspiration enough to get out there and do the same thing! Congrats again on the trip, can't wait to see all the updates to your blog. Have fun, and be safe!

Damn Robb, what a sweet trip! :bowdown: I've always wanted to go to Moscow, I will someday. I took 3 years of Russian in college and can't wait to go and try out the skills before I loose them completely.
 
Way to go you guys! How cool is that. I am half Russian, and would like to see a bit of the Motherland someday :sunflower

What kind of really wierd foods have you eaten? I hear they eat fried scorpions in China! Yikes!!

Can't wait to see you both and hear more about you jet setting world travelers. :archaeolo

We traveled Aeroflot, because they were about $500 cheaper per ticket. The plane brought us back to our childhood and the airplanes in the ‘70’s. It was noisy, at time rickety and the food was horrible. The safety demonstration was done by the flight attendants (there were no T.V. screens on the plane) and the seat belt latches were ones I hadn’t seen in at least 20 years. It was a long 2 1/2 hour flight. However, upon arriving in Prague, our friend Jana mentioned that they had three crashes this summer. Comforting news now that we were safely on the ground.

Yeah, definately no FAA regulations over there!

Great pictures, and great stories... can't wait to hear more!
