We released our first round of lanterns into the sky that night..





As I watched the lanterns fly overhead, I felt so much gratefulness... for the new friends I had made and for all the experiences of this day. We were all becoming family and I didn't want this to end.

The realization that a lot of people would be flying home soon was a hard one to swallow. Tomorrow was going to be our final day together as a group.

I pushed the thought away and reminded myself to just enjoy the moment.

We moved over to Eddie's D-bar next with Tizzy, Jon, Booger, Sandy, Marley, Ninja, Wpyogi, +1, and Katho for a proper after party – and it was a wild time. I would share more about that, but my memory of that night is just a blur of laughter.

In the early morning hours, we all hugged our goodbye's and headed back to our respective hotels... I fell asleep that night with a big smile.
