European Honeymoon 2007
Fri 09/07/07 (day 1)
New Journal Entry
July 6th, 2007
I am sooo excited to go on this trip .
We still need to book all our hotels but I'm relieved we've purchased our plane tickets. So now the trip is non-refundable and more of a reality than just a dream.
I'm hoping to just take one piece of carry-on luggage each. I know this will be a challenge but will make all the trains and planes easier to deal with and cheaper.
I've copied a packing list from another trip as a starting point for my own.

Congrats on your marriage. You are going to have a fabulous time in London. I just returned from there a few weeks ago and I can't wait to go back. Remember to take an umbrella though. And you will just adore Italy. Florence was my fav. If you want to see the statue of David, get there early. The line is unbelievable. Good luck with the rest of your planning. Have a wonderful time!
