the european process
deidra and i are in the process of planning our long awaited honeymoon. it's a tedious process. at first, we were thinking of going to europe. to make it easier on us, we thought about just getting those 9-day packages that will take you to three different countries/cities (london, paris, and amsterdam).
after mulling over it, we decided that it's too expensive for what we're getting. so then we thought about going to asia. there are these 15-day packages that will take you to places like thailand, laos, and cambodia. it sounds great and all, but then i thought about how my GI system would kill me in these places. however, what piqued my interest with these packages is the one day cooking stop that will teach you how to cook ethic thai food. here's a picture of amy learning the ways of thai food (fuck, you get a chef's hat and everything).
however, the problems that i'll have will probably make this sort of trip unenjoyable, so we decided against it.
now we're back with planning our own trip to europe. no tours, no packages since apparently we can do it cheaper if we plan our own itinerary. though i'm not looking forward to the planning process, i think it'll be cool to go to europe for a week (at least) or maybe two weeks if we can hack it. europe in the winter time. snow and rain. i'm getting excited. i can actually find a use for the rain coat that i got a while back. seriously, what use is a rain coat in southern california?
to help us with this endeavor, we've purchased two books: lonely planet's guide to western europe and rick steve's, europe through the backdoor 2005. (haw, haw... he said backdoor). the plan so far is to go to ireland (cuz it's suppose to be fucking beautiful), england (my homeland, *snicker*), france (deidra's people), and the netherlands (or more specifically, amsterdam).
to save money, we'll probably stay at cheap hotels. the only criteria i have is that we have our own lavatory and shower. i don't need to be sharing a toilet with other travelers. and what's the point of spending money on a hotel room when all we'll be doing is sleeping and fucking (oops... sorry, i meant making sweet inter-racial love).
so, that's what we're planning to do this morning. afterwards, we'll be doing laundry and cleaning out mr. wellington's cage. if we have time, i was thinking of going to the chinese market cuz i want some homemade dumplings.
oh, i forgot, if anyone knows of anything good deals on hotels or places to go in europe, please let me know. granted, we can't do EVERYTHING there is to offer, but we can certainly try. and just in case you're wondering why we're going to europe during the rainy season... well cuz that's when we have time off from school.
