Yes.  You read that correctly.  On Day 297, I trekked across Nepal.

&nbsp;

As an armchair traveler.  :-D

&nbsp;

As you may recall from past posts on this blog, my friend, David aka Captain Adventure, travels to the most exotic locales around the world.  The more remote, the more semi-dangerous, the more that he has to "rough it", the better.

&nbsp;

In other words, my upcoming cycling adventure through Tuscany is akin to a Sunday afternoon stroll for Captain Adventure.  Waaayyyyy to pedestrian for his tastes.

&nbsp;

In December, Captain Adventure traveled to Burma.  He came back from his vacay and was laid off by his company.  Another American "cut backs" casualty.

&nbsp;

Instead of bemoaning his fate, Captain Adventure realized that now may be the only time in his life where he could fulfill his dream of taking off for 3 months to Nepal.  How's <em>that</em> for positive thinking?

&nbsp;

I, personally, thought it was poor timing, considering that he and Sarah are my two friends that humor me the most with blog activity participation.  Hmph.  Selfish wench that I am, I decided to let that go in the name of Captain Adventure's happiness.

&nbsp;

Upon his return from the Himalayas, Captain Adventure awoke from his jet lag induced hibernation and invited me over for divey-yet-delish Mexican and a front row slideshow.

&nbsp;

Allow me to explain that Captain Adventure is a perfectionist when it comes to his slideshows (actually iMovies).  Once he releases the YouTube link, I will share it with you.

&nbsp;

In the meantime, check out this sneak preview!

Oh.  And guess what? On this very same Day 297, only a few days back from Nepal, Captain Adventure networked his way into a new job.  How's <em>that</em> for not sweating the small stuff?  And in the scheme of things, it's (mostly) <em>all</em> small stuff.

What is your idea of an Adventure?
