Close!

We will be flying this time next week and can't quite believe we are really doing it! Months ago when we were planning the trip we made these idea boards.  We each added post its with things we hoped to to.  Booking the trip we tried to work as many in as possible to the plan! 

Eliza is working on her school work for the days she will be out of class between the end of Thanksgiving break and when she returns to school in January!

 

Where we are and where we are going!

Preparations

Only 12 days left before we depart for Egypt.  We've gotten our immunizations updated, the trip is all booked and we've made arrangements for pet care and the like.  We are all figuring out what we need to take (Thank you Rick Steves packing lists), watching films with Egypt connections (Death on the Nile, The Spy Who Loved Me, etc.) reading tour guides and generally getting excited! 

Goal  for Doeri today- figure out HOW TO BLOG!  I've gotten this far. Yay.   Will reach out to people who have expressed interest in following the trip to invite them to subscribe and learn how to post photos next! 

Waahoo!
