Closer.. and closer..

The day inches closer.. and closer.. and seems like it will never arrive!!! But, actually, looking back on the past months of planning this trip, and it has gone by super fast. And now our departure date is less than a month away. Crazy. We have our VISA's, our plane tickets, our tour information, contacts in countries.. basically, all we need to do is pack our bags and we're OUTTA HERE! :) ..But that is quite a bit easier said than done. If someone has not many of the things that are needed for our trip around the world, how does this person get the things they need..?? Beg, steal, borrow. :) Ok, so we haven't stolen anything yet, probably won't steal anything soon. Key words: "yet" and "soon".  :) Nah, we're all legal. But I have borrowed and some of that has been begging, maybe. Slowly but surely we are getting all prepared. Bascially, its Christmas, and then we leave. Exciting!!
Anyways, I don't really have any new news, but I figured its been a while since we wrote anything. :) But once we get rolling.. well, we won't be able to fit everything in on this blog. Keep us in your prayers!! Pray that the final preparations go smoothly, and that our nerves (and the nerves of our parents..) will be eased and that we will be able to trust that all will be well!
Have a very Merry Christmas, everyone!!! And a Happy New Year. :)
God Bless,

Starting out the Adventure. :)

Hello, everyone!!

So, preparations are well underway for our big trip. We are QUITE excited and trying as hard as we can to earn as much money as we can for our adventures in the New Year. We have bought the tickets, and we are leaving on January 11, 2011. Its actually happening!!! And MUCH of that thanks goes to Coreen Calvert, from Integrity Travel, who happens to be a relative of ours, for helping us get things sorted out, and the the wheels rolling. It is an exciting venture, and we have learned/will learn MUCH through this. We ask for all your continues support and prayers during our final stages of this glorious adventure. We will keep you updated (or try to, as much as we can) as we go along. So, so far, we have bought the tickets, and received the necessary vaccinations for each of the countries we will be visiting. We have also initiated contact with people that we know in any of the countries we will be stopping in. Here is a temporary list of the countries we plan on going through, and if you know anyone in any of these countries, PLEASE let us know!! It would be awesome to connect with friends of friends or relatives.  : )

India, Egypt, Germany, Luxembourg, Belgium, Netherlands, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Serbia, Macedonia, Greece, Albania, Bosnia, Croatia, Slovenia, Italy, France, Spain, England, Scotland, Ireland.

The bolded countries are the ones we are really interesting in stopping in, the rest are ones we will just be passing through on our way to get to each of these highlighted places. (We would actually like to be able to say that we was IN all of these countries, and not just passing through on the train, cause that doesn’t really count. : ) So, we will probably stop in each country, if nothing more than just a couple hours.)

So, that is the plan! Give us some feedback on what you think, ideas of where we should go and people we should go see!! Thank you all for your continued prayer and support during this excited new adventure!!

Anna and Demara
