One Month To Go

(Us geared up for ziplining in Monteverde Cloud Forrest, Costa Rica) As some of you know we have been planning this trip for a while. It was just a twinkle of an idea in February of this year and some how has grown into reality. I (Heather) had already given my notice at work, thinking we were just moving and Chris had a job interview in Tahoe. During his interview he was asked, "What will you do if you don't get this job?". He replied, " I don't know, travel around the world". When he told me he said that I was all for it. So we thought about it...I mean our stuff was already going to be in boxes to move, so why not? It's the opportunity of a lifetime. And so here we are, with just a month left until we leave and only our first plane ticket bought...oh and our rental car. So the idea is to be out for 6 months, or until the money runs out, which ever comes first. Or if we miss our dog, Piper, so much we can't stand it any longer.

Our tentative route is as follows:
New Zealand
Australia
Thailand
Cambodia
Vietnam
Laos
Jordan
Egypt
Eastern Europe
and go home through Amsterdam

Since we're going just a leg at a time anything could change. We may just decide to stay in one place the whole time, or skip several destinations altogether. It's all based on how we feel at the time. Kinda nice, huh?

So there it is if you didn't know anything yet. Stay tuned for more.
