It's here. It's finally here.

May 19th! The day I have been anticipating since late fall. We catch a plane in about 2 1/2 hours to begin our European Adventure. This is the view I will have for a long, long time. Till tomorrow, actually. -->

But it will be worth it. If you have some time on your hands, come join us in any of the following cities:

London

Cotswold, England (think Kate Winslet's hometown in "The Holiday")

Bath, England

Paris, France

Barcelona, Spain

Cadaques, Spain

Bah! Ecstatic is the word that comes to mind. Also, a tad bit of anxiety that I do in fact have all necessary documents, itineraries, clothes, shoes, etc. I'm sure it's fine. I only went over my excel spreadsheet entitled "Europe packing list" like 9+ times.

Anyway, I'll try to check in periodically via internet cafe's and whatnot. See ya in like 10 days, America. Unless of course the Icelandic volcano makes another cloud canceling my flight out of London indefinitely. If that's the case, I may just stay there.
