Off to an excellent start!
So after leaving work a couple of hours early, I headed home to do some last minute things before our trip. You know; little things such as picking up my international driver's license, getting some money and oh yeah, packing bags. ;-) In between all that, we managed to drop Poezie off at the cat-hotel, where we almost couldn't leave him because of the fact that he didn't have 1 shot, but we ...
