The countdown continues...9 days to go

Now everything seems to be coming along smoothly.  My visa was approved and i now have my passport.  I bought most of the things on the list of stuff i wanted to take with me. It's just a matter of waiting now.

Yesterday i went to target to buy the last items on my list.  I had been reading lots of reviews of the airline i'm traveling on and it seems as though it would be a good idea to take my own blanket and pillow.  As Matt pointed out yesterday, most people drool while they sleep.  Do i really want to rest my head on someone else's drool stain..i don't think so.  Oh and i got these really cute monkey shaped luggage tags.  Other than that i'm pretty much set.  May 10th, please get here soon.

It's just a matter of waiting now
