Still packing....

Hey everyone,

I'm super excited about heading out for Europe but also getting a little anxious that I'm forgetting something or overpacking etc. What I expect the experience to be like is just like any other school excursion I've been on...and that is a fun exciting, experience where I get to learn about other cultures and see what life is like outside my Texan blinders. I am most looking forward to all the new people that we will meet overseas. I've been lucky to have always had good travels and met many amazing people while doing so. I expect to this trip to be no different. I can't wait to see all the sites and sounds of Europe since this is my first trip. It's exciting to me that I'm starting in Germany where most other folks start in London or Paris or another more toured area. It seems rich with history and being the history/museum junkie that I am I can't wait! Though I think Amsterdam's museums (i.e. sex or torture museum etc.) may just beat out history.

Crazy!
Gotta keep packing!
See you all soon!
