Truth be told, this is not the first time I've sat down to do this. Eric and I have tried so many times to get it done, and I've done a little planning on my own while he's in classes, but this is the real deal.
He's in German class right now, so I'm at the school using free internet to blog some photos (which sorry you still can't see because I don't have all the ones I need yet) and to plan some trips. Planning real vacations are so much harder than dream ones. There is so much I want to see but now that it's real, time and money become important factors; not like when you plan a 2 month European tour that costs a fortunes and requires you to completely vacate reality to accomplish.
This is the night though, plans need to be made. Next week Eric has his first 3 day in a row (not including Sundays because we want to be home in Vienna for those. It was hard enough to find an English ward in our home city. We'll stick with it, thank you!). We plan to make those days our firs out of Austria trip. To somewhere close, either Budapest or Prague. We want to go tomorrow to buy the tickets and to talk to an agent to see the cheapest deals we can get with all the train travelling we'll be doing in the upcoming months. There is one pass in particular that we want to look into that give you unlimited train travel on the European rails, within a certain amount of time. It's called the Eurail Global Pass. So we need to have our dates and destinations planned to see what deal will be best for us. I'm excited, but it's a lot to do to squeeze it all in and see all we can.
We have a list of 10 countries with about 13 or 14 cities/sites we really want to see, and with my ridiculous organizational and scheduling abilities we might actually be able to work it out. I'm very excited about it!
This trip has been a dream of mine and Eric's for a long time. I've always wanted to visit Europe, as most people have. Eric has always wanted to study abroad with his wife in the first year or so that he's married. This is such a great opportunity for us and we are just so grateful to be here. We saved a lot of money and sacrificed a few things to get here, but now we are and planning these trips for real is incredible.
Our list of countries that we are going to be able to make it to includes:
Germany
Switzerland
Czech Republic
Hungary
Croatia
Italy
Spain
France
England
Ireland
If anyone knows great things to see or do in those spots somewhere, let me know. I would love to hear them. We have most cities planned already, but as far as Croatia and Switzerland go we're kind of at a loss.
Back to planning, instead of blogging. Goodnight!
