The only thing keeping me going is that in only 3 and a half weeks I'll be finishing my job forever and boarding a plane for a 3 month trip of a lifetime. I have a feeling I am going to get on the flight to Vancouver and curl up into a ball and cry, but at least I'll have 3 months to relax and start to feel more like myself.
Speaking of my holiday, here are my plans so far...
- Arrive in Vancouver and spend a week with brother #1 and his girlfriend exploring beautiful Vancouver.
- Get on a bus for 13 hours to Banff and spend the week with brother #2 and his girlfriend at the snow trying not to kill myself on the snowboard.
- Fly to Las Vegas for AJ's 30th birthday and spend the week at the Venetian with brother #2 and his girlfriend causing as much trouble as possible.
- Pick up a hire car and embark on an 8 week road trip around the USA going where ever we feel like it, when ever we feel like it!
- Fly to Mexico and stay here for a week of indulgence at an all inclusive (including alcohol) and child free resort.
- Fly to Alaska to explore for the week (we were going to get a cruise, but too pricey for us).
- Back to Vancouver where I'll meet with both brothers and my dad and step mum will be arriving from Australia for a family reunion.
- Fly home to Melbourne and wonder what to do with the rest of my life.
So as stressed out as I am feeling now trying to get everything done, it'll all be worth it!

ReplyDeleteTake a deep breath (or 5)!!! I get completely stressed out even when only going o/s for 2 weeks. Ask me how many times a day I check my passport to make sure it magically hasn't disappeared!!!
ReplyDeleteGood luck getting things sorted before go. I am so jealous!!! Your trip looks truely amazing :0)
It sounds amazing, too bad you couldn't be in Vancouver for the Olympics :( If you happen to venture to the east coast of the USA, near Philadelphia let me know!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful trip. I am jealous! I call those feelings you are having "short timer's disease" as in you know you won't be at it for too much longer and you are living in the fantasy of this great new phaze of your life. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteIf you come through the Houston, TX area, give me a jingle! Your trip sounds fabulous. Banff is one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen. So jealous!! :)
