I wrote up a story for Salon.com!! It's about a night I ended up stranded in Bogota, Colombia without a place to stay - one of the most terrifying hours of my life! You can read it here: http://www.salon.com/life/feature/2011/07/24/twitter_saved_my_bacon/index.html
Oh, what a WONDERFUL story - about how your friends rallied...and about the kindness of a stranger (to you). To shelter you, trust you and your children with his home, to leave to provide the three of you with privacy... Thank you for writing this.
well does that conclude your cycle adventure? Are you still out and about or are you at home now? Good story. I'm glad it had a good ending.
