Normally we would avoid any night life during this week since dealing with the SXSW crowd is terrible and the parking sucks.

With so much to do, it was hard to stay on top of the “trip close-out” chores. We still have to rename the approximately 6,000 pictures we took. We hope you enjoy the video!

I love how pictures can elicit the same emotions that you were experiencing when you took them.  As I look at each picture from our Southeast Asia trip, it brings everything back… what I was thinking when I took the picture, whether I was sweating a little or a lot,  was I ...
