Let me take a moment to talk about our current schedule, which is quite flexible. \u00a0This Friday, June 29 we fly from Denver, Colorado to New York City. \u00a0We leave NYC in the evening on July 1. \u00a0From NYC we land in Verona, Italy the morning of July 2. \u00a0We spend the day in Verona, but that evening we fly to Madrid, Spain where we will stay with my amazing friend, Alberto. \u00a0We get to spend three whole days in Madrid before taking a train to Pamplona on Friday, July 6 in the morning, in order to catch the opening ceremonies of the Festival of San Fermin (also known as the running of the bulls). \u00a0We have a couple of days, probably just two, in Pamplona, before we head to Barcelona. \u00a0The plan is to spend the day of July 8 in Barcelona, and fly out from Barcelona on the morning of July 9 on our way to Venice, Italy. \u00a0That is when our schedule becomes less scheduled. \u00a0We have from July 9 through August 16 to make our way from Venice, through Croatia, then Greece, then Turkey. \u00a0The ‘plan’ is to spend about two to three weeks in each before catching a flight from Istanbul to Dar es Salaam (Tanzania) on August 16. \u00a0Our time in Tanzania lasts through September 1 and includes about a week of Safari and a week on the island of Zanzibar. \u00a0From Tanzania we fly to Delhi, India on September 2. \u00a0We make our way from Delhi to Varanasi, where we cross over to Kathmandu, Nepal to meet our guide on September 25 to begin our 12 day trek through the Himalayans. \u00a0We then fly from Kathmandu to Osaka on October 9. \u00a0We have until October 28 to visit Osaka, Kyoto, and Kobe. \u00a0On October 29 we leave Japan for Bangkok, Thailand. \u00a0We have through November 20 to see as much of thailand as we can. \u00a0We head to Singapore on Nov 20. \u00a0Then we have until December 29 to explore Singapore, Bali, and anything and everything in between. \u00a0We make it back to Denver in the evening on December 29. \u00a0<\/p>\n
I hope that was at least a little easy to follow. \u00a0I wanted to give you guys a clearer picture, now that we have some definite plans. \u00a0Visitors? We’d love to see any friends along the way! \u00a0We’ll be with my sister in Spain, Italy, Croatia, Greece, and Turkey, and then Seth’s parents will be joining us in Japan, but other than that you have our attention!\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the next few days I will be posting the exact contents of our backpacks. \u00a0And, no, there will not be curling irons or eyelash curlers. \u00a0C’mon people, what’s with the curling?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
