miscellaneous thoughts on our trip
We take off tomorrow.
Luckily I'm off today because I'm nursing a bit of a head cold so I have some time to shake it. (I plan on sleeping for the whole flight, that should fix me up!)
But here are some thoughts on this upcoming trip.
I expect to be asked if I've heard of Wolfmother (yes, and we are SO OVER them), told that those two trapped miners were on American TV (and no, Tasmania is nowhere near where I live) and informed that I have either lost of gained weight.
Besides seeing our family and friends, I'm really excited about going to Archie McPhee, seeing the amazing Seattle Library, checking out Millennium Park (with the big bean!), finally seeing Too Much Light, consuming lots of Ben & Jerry's, going back to the House on the Rock, seeing the new fancy shopping center in my home town and having some world famous Ann Sather's cinnamon rolls.
I don't expect to get any info on how the Socceroos are going in the FIFA world cup. (actually I expect that most Yanks wont even know that the world cup is on)
I probably wont post a lot while we are away. But I'll try to pop some pics up on flickr from time to time
