I landed in Lebanon in the early, early hours of December, 27th, the day of my friend Jen's wedding. We went to sleep for a few hours after she and the groom picked me up from the airport, and then got up and got ready for a wedding!

Glitter actually fell out of my suitcase when I got home.
This was one of the greatest trips of my life! I saw so many amazing things, spent time with people I've known for 22 years, and made new friends that I will always love!
