E.U.R.O.P.E

Dearest friends, family, loves and old lovers,

It's official.....................

WE'RE GOING TO EUROPE!

Tickets were purchased yesterday, backpacks were scouted at REI, Lonely Planet's were revisited.

For New Years, I will be in Barcelona, Spain! And best of all, this trip (finally) includes the lover.

Naturally, no sooner than we purchased the tickets did the Obama Administration "warn[ed] Americans of potential terrorist threats in Europe and urged them to be vigilant in public places, including tourist spots and transportation hubs." NPR
Well, that's as fancy as Dijon mustard. Oh well, I'm going to scoot on over to Paris with a big fat smile and show that Eiffel Tower who's boss. And while in Spain, I'll do the conversing and Jarred will keep his Texas mouth S.H.U.T!

The best part about this trip is that no longer will everyone have to suffer through my rambling blog posts about obese Wal*Mart folks, or how I really feel about corn dogs. Here and now marks the commencement of TRAVEL BLOG. Long awaited and almost worth the wait. Expect news on REI shopping sprees and the complete break-down of how to pack 3 different pairs of brown leather boots in my one backpack.

Cheers
