And just like that, boom, we're back in the US! It's been a whirlwind month since our last update, to the point that it's hard for me to believe looking back that just a month has passed.

Finally getting back home to Gozo after 2 months of living out of suitcases was definitely a huge relief, although arriving to an abnormal heat wave and new noisy neighbors has definitely curbed our enthusiasm.
