Easter Sunday, April 8th, 2007

So right now I am sitting at Tupelo's Coffee House, outside on this beautiful Northern Cali Day. Turned to the London pages of the travel bok MTV's Europe. Planning out my relatively short stay in Jolly Ol', I want to do all the traditional tourist sites: the royal palace, Tower of London, Big Ben. But I also want to leave time to just explore. A balance I am going to have to work out.

I leave for London in three days. It's kind of surreal. Got my plane ticket a in late January, thinking this day was way far off. Now I am in the home stretch.

I have laid out all my clothes, 7 days of shirts, underwear, socks and pants. Thanks to Andrew O., I have a sufficient pack to hold all of my stuff as I navigate Europe. I've got my passport, plane tickets, hostel reservations, and all the other paperwork together, now all I have to do is walk on to that plane at SFO.

Three weeks. 4 countries. Like I said before, it's all kind of surreal. I honestly don't think it is going to hit me until I step off of the plane at London's Heathrow International Airport.

I am going to try to update this blog, with pictures, daily. But forgive me if I miss a day or two.

Hey - Kolby! Sounds like you are having an enriching experience. Keep the photos and comments coming. However, please fix the format cuz I feel like I am only getting half the enjoyment. Gigi said you misspelled Jolly. Love you! From the E Neutra Casa!
