Preparing for Departure...

So I have exactly a week left to go before I depart for the Bahamas! Currently the upstairs hallway in our house is filled with clothes, travel guide books, and every piece of travel paraphernalia you could ever imagine a person would want to take with them...ever. I highly doubt this will fit into one duffel bag, so more than likely, half it will be going back into my closet. I am definitely getting nervous as the date for the ship to leave approaches, but it's a nervous-excitement, as I prepare to embark on the journey and adventure of a lifetime! Since I'm not exactly what I would call a "blogger", I am no expert at keeping an online journal, and just wanted to get a head start before I leave the country. Included is Semester at Sea's map of the Fall 2008 voyage, and where I will be headed over the next 4 months or so.

More to come once I actually get on the ship...
