I felt like a little kid at Christmas today at lunch time when I picked up our travel documents from the travel agent.  I couldn't wait to get back and have a look at everything, especially the Eurail timetable.  I love reading stuff normal people don't find exciting like maps, phone books and street directories.  I know it is weird but I love it.  Each year when we get a new phone directory I always spend time checking it out.  Now I'm digressing.
Back to the holiday.  I can't wait.  I have 2 more days of work to go (Aaron finished today) and then I am free for 11 weeks.  Not that I don't love my job, I do.  But I have been really looking forward to having a break.  This year has just been constantly busy.  More diressing, sorry.
I think I have everything under control.  I have some running around to do on Friday getting stuff done like Dr's letters and prescriptions medicines, but other than that everything is all organised.  We did a trial pack last Sunday.  I don't think I will have to cull anything, maybe just 1 top but that's all.  And I 'm way under the 20 kgs which is good.  But that won't stay that way for long I'm sure, if my last trip is anything to go by.  I ended up having to buy an extra sports bag and a tote bag to bring all of my stuff back in (all with no extra baggage charges).  But I have told myself I will be stricter on buying souveniers this time, and maybe teddy bears as well (23 was a bit excessive for a 9 week holiday).
I never know how to end blog posts.  I always had trouble with diaries as well.  It feels weird to me.   I am digressing again, sorry.
