Sporadic running water, and when it runs, its cold versus Hot water on demand.The area GSM system coming and going with the Electrical blackout/ power rationing versus ADSL+ all the time
No comfort food to be found anywhere versus abundant Chocolate, Beer, Pasta, and everything else you can find in a fully stocked grocery/department store.
(initially) Gut wrenching, ulcer producing stress versus relaxed days with siesta time
rice, sauce, and some type of meat (think stew) versus empanadas with the most to die for picante you've ever laid a taste bud on
Not a lick of English (only French or Lingala) to be found versus .. ok not a lick of English (a variety of Spanish) to be found
Hot, dry, dusty, not enough of a breeze to cool you down versus Hot, BRIGHT sunny, daily showers, moderate humidity.
Not a family member within 7000 miles versus having had the whole Clan right next to you to share an amazing experience!
Priceless

SOOOOO SOOOOOO glad that you all are having an awesome experience! Praying that everyone gets home safely and that the transition is smooth like peanut butter. Unless of course, you like your peanut butter crunchy. In which case, I'm not sure that we can all be friends anymore :-)
