And the truth shall set you free - I'm soooooo excited! I just sent in the check for my 3 week tour of Italy. Woo hoo! Yes, the web site is a bit hokey, and I've been to some of the places already (Venice, Florence and Rome), but I'm excited nevertheless. Besides, who wouldn't want to see those places again???
Yeesh, as if I haven't spent enough money this year, my next thought was of buying a smaller digital camera. That was my only real gripe about any of the stuff I brought with me last time was that my camera was a bit too bulky, and kind of a pain in the ass to carry. Maybe if I could get a better case (the one I have has pockets for extra cards and such), maybe then the same one would be fine. But I really like the camera I have... it's just a tad bulkier than I want to carry around. Hmmm... maybe if I swap cameras for 3 weeks with a friend (of course promising to replace it if it gets lost or stolen)... must ponder... Oh, and I should update my address lists for post cards.
I'm so excited!! Woo hoo, something to look forward to!! 3 weeks off work!! Oo... should I take the extra days at the beginning or the end? The tour is Sept 5-24 (I'll miss mom's and Dan's birthdays - they'll probably forgive me if I bring them back something cool...) So if I have to take at least one day before, and then might as well prolong it a few days after and come home on Sunday, then that looks like 17 days off work. I think I have 8 days available now, plus 2 floating holidays... should I go in the hole for the days? Where to go with the extra days? I'll end in Rome (which I've seen before)... so I'll have to do some research on southern Italy. Or maybe go visit friends? Must ponder...
