There's no place like home

We arrived home safe and relatively sound. It is really great to be home and we are very much appreciative of our very comfortable lives in California. Here are the things Ellie missed most:

1. Duke and Chobe
2. Fresh air
3. Using the faucet water
4. School
5. Clean surroundings (no litter)
6. Friends and family (I would have ranked this at least second, but I'm just transcribing) :)
7. Macaroni and cheese
8. Cartoons that are not in Hindi
9. Not worrying about malaria
10. Everyone is nice to animals here
