Headed to paradise city

November might just be the best month of my life. We'll ignore the fact that I have to write a handful of lengthy papers by the time the month is over.

When I signed up for a school-affiliated trip to Morocco (first weekend in November), I was excited. When I said, "Hey, let's go to Venice," found somebody to go with AND booked the flight (third weekend in November), I was even more excited. But the latest plan I've made may surpass them both.

I was planning a trip to Barcelona with some friends, and one person was spitting out other travel ideas like sunflower seed shells. "Let's go to Rome, Paris, Africa, EGYPT!" she said. And then it hit me.

After credit card problems, failing Internet and a slew of other small issues, I have booked a flight to Prague. During the last weekend in November, three friends and I are flying first to Barcelona, then straight to Prague for two nights (48 hours) and finally back to Barcelona for an evening before an early morning flight to Seville. Confused? Here is the abridged version: I'm going to Prague. Last night I got so emotional about it that my friend couldn't tell if my emotion came from happiness or sorrow. I can't wait for Venice, but words cannot describe how stoked I am for Prague. Prague!

Thats awesome i can't believe your going to prague. It took me long enough but i finnaly got an account, skype is up next. By the way don't ask how i know this but you definitely gotta walk on Charles Bridge and look at the statues and all the cool shit they have it on it. Don't ask how i know that because i really have no clue, i probably learned it sleepin through World Civ. or something. Either way definitely try to check that out if you can and keep the updates comin. Go flyers haha.

Well this bubby can't keep up with you anymore. How lucky you are to be able to do all this in a short period of time. Go man go, but don't forget to come home in December.
