Hallo There everyone! (No I didn’t misspell Hello. Its German for Hello!)
Just checking in to get the ball rolling on this thing. I’m currently in route to Munich, Germany via US Airways flight 706. Of course, you won’t read this until I land and find access to the internet, but I thought I’d write a little bit while on board the flight just to help myself remember how things went. J First of all let me just say that the flight IS NOT full and I have a gloriously empty seat next to me. OH. Yes. EMPTY. Im completely in aw of this fact. Because for the next 8 hours, I plan to push back the center arm rest, prop my feet up, and get some much needed rest. Who knew you could actually get a little bit of rest while on a plane
So just a really quick re-cap first off. For those of you that don’t know, I am currently in the process of completing my LAST MBA CLASS!! The class is of course a two-city international business trip/class. And though I miss my friends and family terribly already… (sad I know!) I am thrilled to be able to take part in this little adventure.
The best part of the trip is the fact that when the class is over in a little more than a week, My sis is flying out and we’re going to do a little exploring of the great Italian cities Florence and Rome.
When I went to Spain in 2002 (please note I had no clue the year that I actually went to Spain until I checked my passport a couple hours ago) I took so many pictures and bought post cards and trinkets and things… thinking that When I got home I’d put everything together into some sort of scrapbook-like mishmash of wonderfulness. Yeah. Right. I have no clue where I was standing in the beautiful pictures, no inkling about the historical significance of structures and buildings. .. I just know that I went to Madrid, Seville, Cordoba, and Toledo, had a wonderful time exploring little cobble stone streets, galleries, museums, and cathedrals, and… well that’s it. That’s pretty much all the detail that I remember. It was an awesome trip. I remember how I felt while being there… but I don’t remember much detail about the sites.
So as you may have gathered, the point of this travel blog is to:
a. Allow my friends and family to “come along” on this great adventure, and
b. remind me where I’ve been and what I did on this trip when I look back on it 5 or so years from now.
Ok. Off to do some homework that was due last Tuesday (hey my hardrive crashed! What?!) and then get some sleep. There is now a baby making a lot of noise somewhere in a row in front of me…. So I don’t know now how much I’ll rest. But my belly is full (had the pasta on board here and some apple juice. I guess that’s still included even though any other drinks have to be paid for. L … $2. can you believe that nonsense? And I had to pay $50 to check my overweight (only by 9.5 lbs) bag. Unbelievable.) So I’ll probably fall right to sleep.
I truly hope you all enjoy being taken along for the ride. I will post as much as I can though I don’t know what the internet access situation will be in each of the cities that I plan to visit. If you don’t hear from my for a while, please rest assured that I am well.
Enjoy!
Danke and Auf Wiedersehen! (That’s Thank you and Goodbye. Ha! Learning…)
