In your everyday life you take things for granted and when you travel long enough some of the things you want are some of the basics. As some of you are reading this you are drinking filtered tap water and, having your breakfast which may be a bowl of cereal. I kid you not many long term travelers would love those two things. You may despise left overs but for some of us we would love that.The ability to walk or drive to everywhere you know, going to restaurants where you don't even need to look at the menu. Although we crave these things it wouldn't be long until we bore of them. A lot of us would love to just be able to pick up the phone to make a call or to walk to the place we need to deal with, When you need to think about the 12 hour or more time change it can be frustrating. From time to time you need that little taste of home maybe it is a burger, crackers, vegemite (for the Aussies), or any other of a series of foods.
When traveling there are things we take for granted such as the transportation methods we use, or the food we eat on a daily basis. Another thing we take for granted is friendships. Sometimes we try to talk to you about what great thing we have done or seen and you want to talk about very different things. I think it becomes hard as we drift apart but that is part of life. We get very used to say goodbyes and farewells and move on to the next group coming in. Back home you said goodbye to us and it is over with.
One other thing travelers talk about is that first meal back as for the meal I want when I get back
The Keg,
,
Drink: Glass of water and an ice cold cool crisp smooth glacier fresh bottle of Kokanee.
Appetizer Caesar Salad,

This meal is still a long time away but I still know what it is hands down. First home cooked meal I want now that I have no idea.
