Although it will be a shock to go from that kind of vacation to backpacking. Again, thanks for the iTouch app suggestions! It was a great way to end our time with them for a while.

As they say...."When in Rome." Good luck. Call your old college roommate if you need an "extraction" back.

It's always going to seem like a vacation, but clearly backpacking won't compare to what we just did in Myrtle Beach. I hope you guys are having a blast!
