What do you take for 21 days in Europe? Not much if you are rock star packers like us! This is it folks. That is all of our luggage. How amazing/unbelievable is it? I am not going to lie- I didn't even think we would be able to accomplish it. But here is the photographic evidence.
Today's the day! We are finally off on our trip. I know that neither of us can believe it - we have been planning so long that it seems unreal that it is finally here. As you can tell Mike is ready to roll!
We arrive in London at 6:15 tomorrow morning. As most of you know, neither of us are what you would call morning poeple so this may be a problem. Mike said I should give a preview of each city/place we are visiting for everyone. So here it is.
First, London is hella expensive so we are not staying at any cute British bed and breakfast or inn. We are too poor. Instead we are staying Hotel Ibis which is farther out of the city center but literally right next to a train stop and most importantly we can afford it. Oh well, at least it isn't an American chain hotel.
We are not sure what we are doing on Saturday. We are going to make some plans on the plane. We'll have plenty of time that is for sure.
Love you all!
Mike and Gena
Yay, that's the hotel we stayed at! The breakfast is decent in the morning and we met some interesting people in the bar downstairs. You can walk to the British Museum and also Dominion Theater (where my favorite musical - We Will Rock You - is playing). Plus stop at Platform 9 3/4 at Kings Cross :) Have fun!!
ReplyDeleteI am SHOCKED! And proud :) Travel safe, have an awesome trip!
ReplyDeletePS Great picture of Mike
PPS What are you doing with Sophie and Hank?
Gena's and Mike's plane left Columbus late.
ReplyDeleteI hope all is well and you guys are missing us little people back in the states. Since Mike is not around to view his daily "green" calendar, I thought I would occasionally send you a blurb so that you can stay in touch and don't loose any "green" tips.
ReplyDelete"Friday" - Drink fair-trade, loose-leaf tea for a greener pick me up.
I think those are words to live by. We miss y'all and hope you are enjoying your time away. Oh, and don't forget to "mind the gap". Just a little London humor for you.
