30 Day Challenge - Day 20

A picture of somewhere you would travel.


Rome....

I actually have tentative plans to travel there in 2012. Some ladies that I know through work, although I've actually only met two of them in person, are planning a trip to Rome and have included me. While I know there will be a lot of things about this trip that will annoy the poo out of my, mainly the actual traveling and the crowds that I'm certain will be there, there are so many things that are calling me to join them. For one, this trip will force me out of my hermit hole and I'm certain will lead to a fabulous adventure. For another, I need to visit Europe again before I die.

Yes, I have visited Europe once before when I was 17 and in high school. Trust me, I did not appreciate it nearly as much as I should have. I thank my parents for sending me, even though at one point there was a strong possibility that they were going to say no because I was acting like a spoiled 17-year-old brat, but luckily they did agree and I have a wonderful time...well, I had a good time....ummm, I remember some things when I look at my pictures....

Anyway, this next trip will be London and Rome, or at least I think that is what the plan is. We aren't going until May of next year, so there is still a little time, but I do need to go ahead and purchase my "Learn to Speak Italian" CDs so that I will be able to chat fluently with all the natives.

talk to the Queen about hiring a Rome guide- ours was amazing and you got to bypass all the crowds!

hahaha, Love that Christine mentioned that! I've already given his name to other people heading that way :) He really was good.

do it! oh, and spend the miles to upgrade to business class at least! you'll have plenty, and it will make the travel much more pleasant :)
