So I am heading to Europe tomorrow for three whole weeks and so I thought I should make an entry before my trip. I am just about all packed. Pretty light this time which is quite surprising for me. I am sure it won't seem so light when I am dragging it around Europe but oh well.
I head out tomorrow night for Venice, actually to Amsterdam for a lay over then Venice. I will meet my mom and grandma in Minneapolis at the airport so we will be together on the flight over there. We aren't exactly sure how we are going to get to our hotel, most likely by a boat taxi or bus but it is a little unclear.
After Venice we are heading to Rome for a few days. We are planning to see the Vatican and tour the Sistine Chapel. After that we are taking our first train ride to the cruise ship port. We then will have a wonderful and hopefully relaxing ten day cruise in the Mediterranean. I am mostly looking forward to this part. I really love being able to eat well and relax. As well, I can't wait to see Barcelona; I hear great things.
After the cruise we will head to France. First we will rent a car and head to Normandy. We all want to go see the beaches and war memorial. Next we will head toward our hotel in a suburb of Paris near Euro Disney. I am hoping for more relaxation here as well as going to see the French Open. I think that will be incredible too. It will be amazing either way but it would be awesome to see someone famous play.
Anyway, that will be the end of our European gallivanting. I will then get to come home and see Greg! YEAAH :) But before all of that starts, Greg and I are going out with the Austrians to say good bye this evening. They are all leaving tomorrow too and we are all going out for one last bash. Anyway, I best be going. More European excitement to come.
