The countdown is on!

Oh who am I kidding? The countdown has been on for a while. The only difference is the number is getting a whole lot smaller! What the heck am I talking about you ask? We are going to Europe in 36 days!!!!

Can you tell that I am excited? We are heading to Munich, bumming around for 2 days and then it's off to the apartment that we have rented in Keszthely, that's a town on Lake Balaton in Hungary. We have that for a week and that little town is probably in the top 3 of my favorite places on earth. We spend the days on the beach, going around to other towns around the lake, going to the markets and looking through churches and castles. It is so wonderful there!

Next we head to Budapest for just 4 days. We have some relatives to visit, some sights to see, some shopping to do. I love it there too. It's a bit busier than being at the lake, but it's an amazing city.

We then go back to Munich and fly to Barcelona! I have never been to Spain before, but I think it will be amazing. We have rented an apartment there as well, and I have done some research as to what to see and avoid. We will go to the beach of course, look at more churches (I LOVE churches in Europe, they are amazing!), see some sights, eat some food, and do more shopping. It's my kind of vacation!

I am sure that this trip is one of the reason's that I am so chipper lately. We are at the point where I can finish the planning and booking, and I get to start my lists of what to pack! I love packing for vacation - I know it seems weird, but I will pack mentally for weeks before a trip. It's fun to me.

While transferring the data from our pc to our new iMac, we lost our travel folder, so I have to make sure that I can remember everything that I didn't print off. I should be mad, but somehow it makes planning more fun now that I have a bit of a challenge. I'm just thankful that I had printed off the plane tickets!!
