The Planning Phase

I decided to start this blog so everyone can keep up with Wendy and I as we travel through Europe. Hopefully, I'll be able to update it every few days with our new location, adventures, pictures, etc.

I checked the mySpace counter and we are 25 days from lift off. I am so excited! I've started to get nervous, but not in a bad way. I'm more nervous about finishing all the last minute planning and packing. Wendy is comming to Weatherford on Tuesday night to finish up the planning. We have chosen our route, but still need to finalize what we want to do in each location as well as where we plan to stay. We will go ahead and make reservations for the first few nights in London and possibly Paris. We don't want to be tied down to a specific itinerary but don't want to show up and there be "no room in the inn."

Side note: Keith seriously cracks me up. He asked me yesterday where we will take showers. I was a little confused as to why he was asking but told him that we would take showers in the hostels. He acted surprised that they would have showers and said "I thought they were like caves or grass huts or something and you'd sleep on the floor." I laughed for 20 minutes. He was just kidding, of course, but it was still funny. He really didn't know what the hostels would be like so I had to tell him all about them.

Anywho, keep checking this blog and I'll keep you updated on the who, what, when, and wheres of the trip. I grant you permission to live vicariously through this blog. :-)
