1 week to go!
One week to go before leaving for Japan! On Sunday, October 1, I will travel to meet the other participants in the Japan Fulbright teacher program in San Francisco, CA. We will spend a couple of days there before heading on to Tokyo. On October 8, we ...
Unsure but excited!
Hi! I am really just trying to figure out this blogging thing... I leave Kansas City in two more days, and I am still preparing, these are things I continue to question: what luggage do I take, which shoes I pack, how many clothes do I need, ...
Epilogue
At the morning twilight, we began day 5 of driving home. Around 11:30 we rolled into Olathe, picked up our beagle, and rolled into the driveway. Not bad time, we made it 3700 miles from Fairbanks in exactly 4 days time. We spent an hour or so unloading ...
Road Trip Preparations
I dropped $1000 at the camping store yesterday to finally get myself some good camping gear. Cari and I will be traveling north into Canada in the general direction of Alaska. I hope we can visit some good places in British Columbia, the Yukon, and the ...
Departure
Last night I realized that since we plan to spend at least a day checking out Edmonton, there's no point in trying to rush there. So, we slept in and are leaving now at 10:15am. We should get close to Canada today, and tomorrow we'll go for Saskatoon. ...
Just gettin' ready
Its the last weekend before we head out, and there isn't much left to do before we go. We've still got to pack, and am working on making jungle lodge reservations, but other than that, the trip is a go. I've been reading online all week at different ...
Adios!
Well, we're off! Actually we leave for the airport in about 2 hours. We still have a few last minute things to throw into the backpacks, and then we're on our way. Stella and I are snuggling one last time while we watch Regis and Kelly, and we might ...
First week on the farm
... . Gabriel and Pedro are very happy to let us practice our spanish with them. Pedro also owns a panederia (Mexical bakery) in Olathe, which has the most AMAZING pastelas ever, for about 60 cents each! He wakes up at 3am every day, bakes ...
Felix has landed
So Felix landed sometime early this morning, and while things are looking up for Honduras as to what they could have been, things still are not looking up for our trip. I spent most of the day surfing the internet looking for ways to make the trip work, ...
I haven't even left and I'm already broke...
If you're family, a close friend, or just a friendly ear, I've probably told you and your dog that this "great adventure" has drained my bank account plus some. In fact, without the support of my family (parents, siblings, boyfriend, the great uncle d ...
Getting some Lemps
So today I'm headed to the bank to order some Lempiras, or Lemps as most people call them. The exchange rate right now is about 18.5 Lemps = 1 Dollar. I'm only going to cash in $100 for the start of the trip, and then just plan on getting more as we ...
There's no place like home
... after dark, and with only a few hours to play, decided just to wait it out in the airport till our Spirit flight to the States. Oh my, that was a long 11 hour wait! We did entertain ourselves with cards, books, and a little Wendy's food thrown in for ...
48 hours and counting
We're down to the wire folks - 48 hours and counting before our plane leaves FLL and heads to San Pedro Sula for 2 weeks of fun in the Honduran sun! No really, Sue got our reservations for Roatan all cleared up and we're staying at a nice place she ...
One week to departure!!!
This will be the first time in five years that I have returned to Georgia, where I served as a Peace Corps Volunteer. This time, I return as a wife (of a Georgian) and a mother of a four year old boy. We hope to travel to Tbilisi, Chokhatauri, Bakmharo, ...
Preparing for the journey
Hi everybody- This is the first blog entry documenting our journey to the Philippines. This is mostly a test blog to make sure that you receive it. We want to work out the kinks before we go. I'm still at home! I ...
WE are leaving on a jet plane
Flying is such a thrilling experience for me, but it will be even more exciting seeing my four-year-old son oooh and aaaah about everything on his first trip as we fly to Georgia!!! Four checked bags (two full of gifts) and three full size carryons. We ...
Before I go
Welcome to my travel journal! I leave for Costa Rica in two days, but I wanted to get this set up so that everyone can read about what I'm doing. I will be studying at Veritas University, in San Jose, Costa Rica. Costa Rica is renowned worldwide ...
Working on the details
So I picked up the Lemps from the bank a few weeks ago, and they've been sitting around the house collecting dust. I've been reading up in the guide book and on the web as to where to stay. Still don't have any hard fast reservations except our first ...
A "brake" in our journey
... 't get a slot until December!! So we tried again down here in Missouri and luckily got a slot at a fairly local dealership in Olathe/Gardner over the border in Kansas. Hence, after meeting the inevitable road works on the way, we find ourselves parking on ...
Remembering Japan
... because we knew we'd be saying good bye soon. A group of girls from Kyoai performed a really cute dance and then the Olathe group sang "Take Me Out to the Ballgame", " America, the Beautiful" and a very lively rendition of the theme from "The ...
Home Again
So, after much time and traveling, I am back in America. In the meantime, after leaving Zürich, me and my three friends drove to Singen, the current hometown of one of our group. His internship is still continuing and thus he had to go back to work. ...
Dehydrators, Markets and Other Adventures
Hi! Sorry it's been so long since the last post. We have been enjoying the farm. We typically work from about 7am to 3:30, then we read, make a batch of soap, play in our little garden, or nap. Our "garden" is about four small patches of ...
Day 5 - Gaithersberg - Springfield, OH -Olathe, KS
... . Fortunately, before I left Ohio, I had seen that the weather wasn’t great and I had picked up the approach plate for Olathe, allowing me to shoot the approach. After wandering over the prairie all day on my own (can you really wander when flying a ...
Rain, rain, rain
... We re-potted the flower baskets that had broken and the guys fixed up the greenhouse. We have discovered a little dairy here in Olathe, called the Rocking W. They do milk and cheeses, no yogurt or ice cream yet. Their cheeses are mainly the ...
Pre-departure
Hello everybody. I don't leave for another five days, but I wanted to do a bit of an introductory post before I left and/or forgot. I know this trip won't be quite as exciting and dynamic as my study abroad in Vienna, but still, I figure there will be ...
