here’s the first entry into our post-apocalyptic series. i will refrain from giving away any details until we get farther into the series, but stick around! i’m very excited about it.

if you didn’t catch my last blog, then you are unaware that i am spending the next 6 weeks in europe. london, then germany, then switzerland, then italy. i am going to do the majority of these posts in internet cafes and hostel basements, just because i remain dedicated to “the cause” (the cause: posting cute pictures of monkeys)

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

but here it is folks, edition one of:

THE EUROBLOG

(spoiler alert: i am not yet in europe. i am typing this post the night before i catch the plane, because i am not gonna get a chance to write one tomorrow night)

so basically, here is the itinerary for us in the first few days -

- catch the plane sunday @ 5:30

- arrive in manchester at 7AM on monday

- ????????

we are spending the first two weeks in england, but those first two weeks are wide open. we’re staying in hostels, but as to what we will fill our days with remains undecided.

i actually have never been on a plane nor traveled past the three canadian prairie provinces, so this trip is crazy out there for me. i am 21 and have never seen any landscape besides grass and gophers! it is crazy! though, i admit, i will miss the experience of telling people i have never been on a plane and then seeing their face lapse into an expression that says only “i feel sorry for you”. then, typically, i would follow that up with “yeah, never even been out of saskatchewan, manitoba, alberta either”. never can do that again. that was one of my favorite anecdotes…. :(

but seriously – i remain committed to bringing you blogs throughout the trip. i will probs post pictures, stories, et cetera. i know sometimes travel blogs bore people, but ill like, make jokes, n stuff. and post pictures of cute monkeys.

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

see you (seriously) in euroland.
