South America not happening for me

The best laid plans ... fell apart on this trip. After problems with my right ankle that resulted in a fall in my hotel room the night before sailing, I decided it would be better to cancel and come home while I was still in the US. I felt that was better than possibily falling and breaking some part of me in a foreign country.

After seeing my doctor and having x-rays taken of various parts, the good news is that I didn't actually break any bones. The bad news is that I have bent or bruised a couple of spots, especially my tail-bone area which will take several weeks to a month before I can sit down or get up without any discomfort.

If you are curious about the trip around South America, my 2007 trip was almost the same itinerary. That trip is way down there at the beginning of this blog.

Happy trails to all.
