16 Sleeps to Go..

Just over two weeks. That's crazy!! I'm really excited and slightly nervous. Not for anything in particular, just nervous to be travelling again. Mostly excited. Yesterday I booked our hostel in London for our first three nights. $48/night but it's a double bed, so that's alright. And it's right next to Paddington Station which is fantastic. On Sunday the 18th we'll head out west to Bristol for a rugby game (Bristol vs. Newcastle Falcons woo!!) and meet up with my friend Kate who I met in Fiji. She lives in Cheltenham (45 min south east of Bristol) where we'll go for a couple days and she'll show us around. Then head up north on a bus or train to Edinburgh. I'm really looking forward to Scotland. The more I read about the Highlands the more I want to go! If we can manage it I'd like to take a hop on hop off tour. It's not cheap but public transport is not very good way up north because it is so remote. I'm not sure how long we'll spend in Scotland but we'll head to Ireland after we're done exploring there. Hopefully go to Belfast, Dublin, and possibly fly out to Barcelona if we have the time. Ang would really like to go there, as would I, and it'd be nice to get a bit warmer. Then back to London and meet up with Amber, Nicole, and Owen for a bit I hope, and then leave for home on March 8. Sounds pretty cool. We'll see how it goes really, hah. andie.
