Check that shiznit out! That is like my dream come true, that trip. I promised myself when I was the naive age of, oh, about 19....that I would make it to Europe by the time I turned 25. Welllll...the clock sure is a tickin and I'll be turning 23 when May rolls around. As much as that scares me, I still think I can do it! Hell, in the past two months, I scrounged up $1,200 to get the transmission in my car fixed. I honestly cannot remember the last time I went out, with the intention of buying clothes. Lol. This means that I have been spending NO MONEY and it has been driving me crazy. But I did it, is the point. I did it because my car being driveable was worth it to me. I will and can go through this again too, if it means I can cruise off on a Princess ship with Greece as my first destination! Eeee. I get so excited just thinking about the possibility. My plan is to, within the next few months, go open a CD and start saving as much as i possibly can. This means, sad to say, no more shopping =( not for a long, long......long.....long.....=(...... time.

So, this cruise has 10 ports of call, 10 places I will be visiting-

Venice, Italy

Athens, Greece

Kusadasi, Turkey

Istanbul, Turkey

Mykonos, Greece

Naples/Capri, Italy

Rome, Italy

Florence/Pisa, Italy

Monte Carlo, Monaco

Barcelona, Spain

I read about some of the excursions you can take during they day while you're there, and one of the ones I want to do in Venice, is a Serenaded Gondola Ride. Ba ha ha. I freakin love that!!! Being rowed around in one of the most amazing cities in the WORLD, while being sung to?? Yes, please.

My next task, is finding someone to go with me. Someone who is willing to spend a large amout of money on this trip, like I am. Travis doesn't seem overly interested, when I talk to him about it. I mean, he seems happy for me that this is a goal that I have, but probably not $5,000 dollars kind of excited. I would even go by myself, since you're with people all the time anyway, but I need a picture-taking buddy to come along with me and handle my camera when I want some cool shots taken with me in them. Well, wish me luck...=)
