Not Long Now


The picture on the left was borrowed from the Drury University site. If you want more information on the town I will be staying in for most of the semester, please visit the link below. [http://www.drury.edu/multinl/story.cfm?ID=12841&NLID=211]

I'm in the countdown to Greece. There's tonight and all day tomorrow [Sunday] left. When I wake up on Monday morning, it's time to jet. I had my hair trimmed, my nails manicured, new clothing packed, and a book about the modern history of Greece to read on the plane. My great mom has lent me her new camera that she took on her trip to Hawaii earlier this summer. It's smaller than mine and has a bigger memory card. I'm not bring much technology to Greece because of the differences in plugs and voltage. I will have to use a "Type C" plug converter.
Tomorrow I am going to my home Church, and then my parents and I are driving up to Denver. We're eating dinner with the clan up there and staying overnight because I have a 7 am flight on Monday morning. My next update may come from my long layover on the East Coast on Monday morning and afternoon, or I might wait until I have some time in Greece. There is no telling when that will be. Please be patient with my updating. I'll try to at least give a quick update every couple of days. There's going to be a lot of jetlag and culture shock to begin with. I also don't know when I will have internet access. I may not have time or internet until I get to Volos which will be almost two weeks after I arrive in Athens.
Thanks for visiting! My adventure has been building up for a while, and now it's finally about to really get rolling. Bring it.
