Europe Tour Christmas 2007

Less than 60 days away... oh I can hardly wait.

It's two weeks away and it's seems surreal that we're going to Europe for Christmas. I've been dreaming of this for at least 8 years. I saved airline points to try to get 50,000 for a free ticket, and have ended up paying for it instead. But the end result is the same... I'm spending Christmas in Europe.

I've begun the process of breaking in new shoes, practicing walking with my new backpack, and assembling the things I'm taking with us. I'm downloading music, getting the photo cards ready, ... hmmm... there must be something I'm forgetting. I just hope the thing I forgot doesn't cost too much overseas.

One week away! Jameson Distillery added, Guinness and Jameson one day? We shall see.... I can't wait. Amidst moving, stress levels are at an all time high and I really could use this trip.

Today starts the countdown... 5...

Hey! I heard you kissed the blarney stone! Put that rock down and Kiss an Irishman for me! Whoo Hooo!

I've danced and kissed a few Irishmen since coming to Ireland!

Happy Christmas Eve to both of you! The trip sounds wonderful and I check in on you every day. Hope you get over the shaky thing. Back off the beer and detox a bit..maybe irish coffee? Ok, Tea. Watch out for rude, spitting frenchmen. Jamie said they would spit on the sidewalk in front of them when she was there. Are you doing midnight mass at Notre Dame?
