There She Goes Again

Budweiser Pony

The only commercial to ever bring me to tears….

Please don’t get all excited and expect that it will be this long between posts while I’m actually on the road- you’ve lucked out by not having to read this for awhile people, but do not think it is going to become the norm. So, I’m back on the blog and a super lot has happened. For one, I’m writing this from my couch and not the desk in my “elf shelf” (for those who don’t know, I live in a lofted room with ceilings not QUITE tall enough to allow me to stand up ala the 7th 1/2 Floor from Being John Malkovich). The lovely Tamra has moved into my room, thereby lowering my rent to save some bones for this long trip. It’s only for a month and I plan on not being home a lot, so it should all work out. For the record, my last day of work at The Weinstein Company is now going to be September 28th, a very sad day for me indeed. I will miss my TWC-ers like nobody’s business. That leaves me an entire week to do nothing except for see all of my NY friends until I finally leave NYC on October 6th to go to Chicago. This brings me to my currently planned flights:

October 26th
Chicago to Los Angeles (to visit Leia & rendezvous with Deirdre)

October 31st
Los Angeles to Mexico City (we will visit some of Deirdre’s Mexican friends she made while au pairing in France)

November 6th (Happy birthday Dad & Leia!)
Mexico City to San Jose, Costa Rica (visiting MORE of Deirdre’s friends in Costa Rica- I love her worldly connections)

November 16th
San Jose to Quito, Ecuador (where we will be doing a cruise around the Galapagos & checking out the rainforest!)

December 5th
Quito to Lima, Peru

December 6th
Lima to Cuzco, Peru (Machu Picchu)

December 14th
Cuzco to Lima

December 15th
Lima to Santiago, Chile

December 16th
Santiago to Rapa Nui AKA Easter Island

December 23rd
Easter Island to Santiago

January 28th
Sao Paola, Brazil to Trivandrum, India (studying at an ashram for 2 weeks and then training it up north through Goa, Mumbai, Delhi, Agra, up to Nepal and back down to Delhi)

March 26th
Delhi to Bangkok (to do all of SE Asia & Malaysia)

June 22nd
Singapore to Bali

Then in August- either back to the US of A or to Marseilles for Julia & Romain’s wedding on August 23, 2008!

Isn’t that insane?! AHHH- now we just have to figure out what will be happening in all of those places and our routes, etc. I like that these dates are somewhat open ended. We’ve actually already had to change some flights around, and while it has cost money, it’s beans compared to what purchasing the tickets ourselves would cost.

I’m out for now brown cow.
