Time to go!!

It's time for me to have a go with this. This is Barrett, 7's brother-in-law, his sister Trillion's husband (everyone may know this already, but I don't know who all reads this blog). I will hopefully be making a lot of posts this summer because Trillion and I would like to document that, so it seems natural for me post throughout the entire trip.

I am unbelievably excited right now!! We leave tomorrow morning, and the anticipation is killing me. I have my one large backpack and one small backpack all packed up and ready to go. I decided not to go with the rollers like everyone else because I couldn't stand rolling something like that around the streets of all the big cities in Europe. I also have a functional back.

After the 6 of us tour around Italy for a month, we are heading to Barcelona, and from there Trillion and I will be breaking off and traveling by train and bus through Spain, Germany, Austria, and the Czech Republic. It's going to be an amazing experience, and I hope you all enjoy following along.

Finally I would like to give a shout out to Shaq. Thats right, the newly proclaimed big AARP is retiring and quite frankly I think Shaq is awesome. I hope we see him as an analyst or in a movie soon...

Anyway, it's time to sleep so we can finally get to tomorrow and get over to the other side of the pond. Have a great summer everyone!
