Whee! Less than 3 weeks of work to go!
That's right, if you have plans to send me a parcel, do it now! ;) Oh yeah, in case you didn't know, I live in an apartment and the postman won't deliver parcels unless someone is there to collect them. Beau and I won't even be in the *country* to collect them soon. Yay!
So, this weekend we have plans! Friday, delichan and Neid's birthday celebrations (there shall be gyoza, plum wine and karaoke involved, sweet)! I suspect we shall then drag ourselves out of bed for the Sat 11am viewing of the Dark Knight, 'cause €3!! If it just seems too hard to get up that early we'll try for the more expensive (although still cheap at €5.50) 1.50pm viewing.
No other plans for Sat, which is probably good as Sunday- Tues we shall be camping on Cape Clear Island, the southern-most island of Ireland, apparently. Camping!! I haven't done that in forever and I seriously miss it. Would anyone in NZ be keen on trying to camp next year? I realise that most of my blog readers are more of the "bach" disposition, but it could be fun!
Beau and I have also firmed up our UK roadtrip plans. Airplane tickets have been bought and everything! We shall be flying into Edinburgh and out of Bristol. I actually think we might bypass London this time as we wanna go there and tourist with Ruggle in November and there is so much other stuff to do and see in our 3 weeks.
We've also been offered the loan of a car in the days before we go on the road-trip so we shall probably go to Kerry and/or Galway for a few days. Must talk to delichan about possibility of visiting her folks and their beach-house ;)
In other news, we've also been accepted into the VaughanTown english language school programme and we shall be staying in a 4-star hotel in the The National Park of Monfragüe. Now we need to organise doing the Way of St James, probably in the week before that. We're also tossing around the idea of a couple of days in Barcelona and Lyon, France.
It's so exciting to finally be booking our holidays! Wheeee!
