It's finally here!!!!

I think I am going to burst with excitement...or implode from the stress.  It is less than an hour before i have to head for the airport and i keep finding little things that I forgot to pack.  Not to worry...I have crammed and jammed everything into my ONE suitcase.  I think it weighs a metric tonne though.  I guess I'll have to schmooze the air canada agent into "overlooking" the extra kilos.

Thank you to everyone for making it so hard to leave.    From all of the wonderful get-togethers to the tearful goodbyes, I know I am going to miss everyone so soooo much.  And thank you for all of the items that will travel with me through Europe.  From Saint Christopher to the Guardian Angel, to the memories of MILK...I know my travels will not only keep me safe but I will be surrounded by the people that I love the most.

So...Au revoir, Auf wiedersehen, Ciao, Hasta luego,

Chat soon,

Giff
