Ringing 2013 - Balinese Style with the Ladies

As I say good bye 2012, I reflect on the amazing 2012! I once again had a chance to travel and explore some incredible places! I met so many wonderful people... It is hard to describe how much I am forever changed by this experience! I was on 6 of the 7 continents in 2012!
Some places I traveled this year are: Malaysia, Indonesia, China, India, South Africa, Kenya, Vietnam, Cambodia, Switzerland, Brazil, New Zealand, Australia, and London 2012 for Team USA! And of course Nepal! Hiking to Everest Base Camp was a trip of a life time! So challenging but rewarding when we completed it! New Zealand for some kayaking and hiking and a little skiing was so beautiful, and the country was lovely! I also enjoyed hiking in Kenya and standing in two hemispheres at the same time on the equator. Visiting Angkor Wat - the 8th wonder of the world- was also a favorite! I loved cheering on Team USA in London! I would highly recommend everyone putting going to an Olympics on the list of must do's. Can't wait for Sochi 2014...And spending a week on a cruise with my family was a fun and quality family time trip! I can't wait for this year's trip in Hawaii!
So thankful for the amazing time I am having living in Singapore and for all the great friends I have met including my dear expat friends who travel Asia with me and my great hiking peeps that always come to visit me for crazy adventures! And for my continued work opportunities Deere gives me! And of course for my family - love and support!
Now to the weekend in Bali...
Mary, Cindy, Lena, and I rang in 2013 in Bali and it was amazing! The fireworks display on the beach was incredible. We also enjoyed beach, pool time and climbed to the top of the volcano for sunrise! So fun to have such great friends to see the world and enjoy good times!
May 2013 rock!
