A look ahead...

My tentative schedule for the coming year is starting to materialize a bit...

August - Longboat Key and Toronto trip
September - Toronto and Auburn road trip
October - Denver Great American Beer Festival
November - Staying local
December - Staying put, or possibly road-tripping a Bulls road game

Now for 2008

January - Spain
February - Spain
March - Spain
April - Spain
May - Spain, Italy and "?"
June - Germany
July - Germany - Turkey - UAE
August - China and Japan
September - Japan
October - Japan
November - Japan
December - Japan and then Home Sweet Home

Sometime between January and May I will cross over into Portugal.

This could look pretty different from reality so I wanted to get it down. Oh btw, I am trying to update the blog at least once a month.

Four days until take off!

I started taking a look at the rail pass brochure and I just am a bit puzzled that the Tourism Board, Yokoso Japan (Welcome Japan!) would choose, er this as the cover.

7 days - 7am - 7000 miles

Departure is next Thursday. My rail pass (exchange order) arrived today, I walked out of the airport with a cool 27000 Yen today (yeah the rates stink but you need some starter cash), Em's backpack got here yesterday, so we are just waiting on a few flag patches and a Japan here we come.
