Another year

Today is my 2nd birthday spent on the road. Last years was a particularly spectacular cold and miserable journey stuffed into the back of a truck with some chickens and the compulsory bags of rice. This year was a civilized ferry ride back to Buenos Aires. Not don't get me wrong, the journey in Northern Laos by boat, bus, truck and on foot is one of the highlights of this trip. But the thought of a romantic dinner in one of Buenos Aires many fabulous restaurants, well that would be nice.
Except, Michael is sick. He has some kind of 24 hour flu / stomach thing and will be tucked up in bed shortly. We will postpone the birthday dinner until, um, later...
