Back in the US, Back in the US…
Well, it’s good to be back home. My flights went well. I was a little surprised that New Zealand actually makes you ‘check out’ of the country, by having you fill out a form about how long you stayed, etc. They allowed me to leave though, so that was a relief. The long flight from Auckland to LA was kinda long. I was way up front (good) still in the economy section (ok) directly in front of a three year old (not terrible) who liked throwing kicking-and-screaming tantrums (bad). Luckily they didn’t last very long, but they were still a bit annoying, as I was trying to sleep.
Luckily, I was able to get a bit of sleep on the other flights. On my trip from LA to Chicago, I met a woman who was very interested in my work, and she had a lot of questions for me, so that was fun. Anyway, flights are flights, and there’s nothing very notable. Now I’m home though, well, at school. Which is close.
Thanks for following my trip. It’s been a lot of fun, and I’ve really enjoying writing these entries. It’s been especially meaningful knowing that there are so many people reading them.
Thank you very much,

Hi Jonathon–
I have had a great time reading your entries–what a wonderful trip! I hope the “re-entry” process isn’t too hard. At least you don’t have those pesky Packers interrupting your welcome home tour! (seriously, my condolences).
Enjoy “balmy” Wisconsin!
