Farewell for Who Knows How Long
During the night we where woken by what we thought was rain but turned out to be just some wind. So at 2:00 in the morning we got out of bed and moved our cloths line inside. We had to hang some of the cloths on the water pipes and things in the room. After hanging up the washing and taking some video we finally got back to bed for a few hours ready for the day which was to be one of the hardest days of my entire life.
We spent the morning separating all our things into different bags. During out travel we have been using one bag for our cloths and the others for personal and hygiene items. Now we had to separate everything, the first thing that made today a hard day was the thought of us separating for an unknown period of time
We had a rest in the afternoon before we went for a walk and had pizza for lunch.
Towards the end of the afternoon Marissa's relatives came to give us a list to the airport. The trip to the airport was a very emotional time and I could see Marissa was working hard to hold back her tears and so was I. At this time we had no idea when we would next see each other or where the next chapter in our life together was to taker us.
After I got to the airport and checked in my luggage I went back out and gave Marissa one last hug before I headed into the airport to catch the plain. Today was the saddest day of my life. Nearly 5 months have passed and I still feel the sadness in my heart that I felt the day I had to walk away from her to get on that plane. By the time I was on the plane I was pretty much in tears but I was also relived to know that this trip was not only the biggest undertaking of my life, it was the start of something even bigger. This adventure had been a great adventure, but now Marissa and I have decided to live the adventure of a life time together hand in hand. All this was only the beginning, the real adventure has only just begun!
