Pretrip Cramming

This is Vianden, Luxembourg, aka one of the sites we are visiting.

I spent today repacking my bag three times.
And doing other far more interesting things but that's besides the point.

And that wasn't much fun because I keep moving into larger bags.

Sure there is way more space in the bag now, but it kinda defeated the "backpacking" goal. Ohh well. I carried much larger bags around Berlin on my own 2 years ago. And I was fine. Sort of.

In the end I am now carrying a gym bag of the adidas variety. Better than we expected.
Its a little weird to me, that everyone is kinda treating this like a "goodbye forever" scenario. I love you all a lot, but I'll be back July 2nd! It's not so far! You wont have time to miss me before I'm back, and if you do...I'd love to recieve some emails while I'm in central Europe. Really. It would be so nice to hear from you, yes you, while I'm away.

Also, if you want a postcard just message me with the city you want one from.
In our gradtour we're visiting Brussels, Bruges, Antwerp, Amsterdam, the Haag, Utrecht, Luxembourg, Vianden, Frankfort, Cologne, Heidelburg, Freiburg and Paris. Any of those appeal to you? I can text messages/emails etc today on my phone...but after that not so much. And I'm not really great at the keeping in touch thing while I'm traveling...it's nothing personal I promise! Everyone is ignored the same amount!

So...see you on the otherside of the ocean!
