I had to make a tough decision today. The downside (yes, there is one!) of my exciting travel plans is that doing any study this semester is going to be virtually impossible – even though most of the time I’ll be away is during the university vacation, I’ll still be missing a week and a…
Well that turned into a busy sort of day. It started with a breakfast meetup at Trattorie, attended by me, lytteltonwitch, awhina, Mr awhina, meerkitten and giraffe02, and angela7715. As always, London and the Bookcrossing World Tour were the main topics of conversation, plus the clean up of the database (who knew a simple question…
Everything’s starting to come together nicely. I joined the Oahu BC yahoo group a couple of days ago, but it’s a closed group, so I had to wait for approval before I could post anything. The approval came through this morning, so I sent a post asking if anyone could host me, and got an…
When you look at it like that, it hardly seems any distance at all… 🙂
Well, oh Sydney, at least. I just got an email from Littlemave offering me a bed for the night I’ll be in Sydney. Yayyy!!!! (Sorry for the multiple posts today, but suddenly everything is starting to come together, and it’s all getting very exciting!)
I have somewhere to stay in Ottawa! I got busy today* and joined several bookcrossing yahoo groups in the areas I’m going to, and posted messages seeking accommodation. And I just got an email from princess1984 offering a bed for the two nights I’ll be in Ottawa, and to pick me up and drop me…

I just got back from the pictures and it’s very very late, so I really should go to bed, but I just wanted to say that when I got home there was an email waiting for me from the travel agent, with a confirmed itinerary. YAYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! More details tomorrow. (Between flashbacks of the movie (The…
It looks like I can go to Spain after all! The travel agent did some more juggling, and if I fly Bilbao-Madrid-London-Chicago, there’s no problem. It means a couple more hours on a plane, and even more hours sitting around in airports, but considering how many hours I’m going to be doing that anyway on…
The good news is, she’s almost managed to sort out our itineraries. YAYYY!!! The bad news is, she’s having trouble with the Spain leg of the journey. She’s got a flight on a cancellation waitlist, but if that doesn’t work out, then my only option for getting to Spain (or rather, getting from Spain to…
