Ten Days and Counting

Well, for those of you keeping track, it's a mere 10 days before I head out. Packing has not even started yet, and homework is no where NEAR finished. But, I'm excited nonetheless. lol I REALLY REALLY need to finish my work so I can focus on my guidebooks on the planes/trains!!! I can't go over there with absolutely no idea what I want to see, that would end in mass chaos!

Anyway, just thought I'd update a little bit....Jamie comes in friday and will be here until Monday so I get to see him one more time before I go. :) It's all kind of coming really fast, I still have a few things to gather up and figure out before I leave, hopefully I won't run out of time!

Toodles,

Julianna

Savannah

Well....here I am in Savannah. This city is so gorgeous, I love it. We toured the historic district yesterday and got to go in one of the old houses. Last night was dinner at Paula Deen's restaurant which was, of course, amazing. We were very excited and proud to discover that the peach cobbler at the restaurant tastes the same as the peach cobbler I made out of her cookbook a couple weeks ago. :) Paula Deen tour today, our tour guide was hysterical and a VERY good sport considering the hard time she was given. lol

I love hanging out with the Sr. Adults and traveling with them! It's always so much fun and DEFINITELY never boring. lol I discovered tonight before dinner that a couple of them were in the same sorority together in college and were big sis/little sis. And now they're traveling together and having a ball. I can only hope I'm still that close to some of my sisters when I'm that age.

Anyway, Tybee Island tomorrow and a show tomorrow night. They keep threatening rain so we'll see what happens there.

Pictures are up on Facebook through yesterday, the rest will come before too long, though it may be the end of the trip or on the way home before that happens.


Adios,

Julianna

On the road again.....

Well, for those of you wondering, Houston was wonderful. It didn't even rain very much! I got to spend time with Jamie and his family which is always fun. And of course a bit of hanging out with Lorn, Kristyn, Kat and Cory too.
Jamie and I played at the museum and Mountasia Friday, then went out to his grandparents' ranch with his mom on Saturday. Being out there and feeding the catfish and everything reminded me of Mamaw and Papaw's farm out in Tyler and going out there when I was little. It was alot of fun too. We did a little bit of fishing and I got to watch "the pro" (Jamie) in action. lol Overall, a relaxing and fun weekend, I even got a little bit of classwork done while Jamie was in class on friday, but, as always, it went by too quickly.


Which brings me to today and the Savannah trip. We've made it to Meridian, Mississippi and will get to Savannah tomorrow afternoon/evening I think. So far it's been very entertaining and fun as these trips always are. However, we have an early morning tomorrow (we have to be at the bus at 7:15 in the morning!!!) so I better sign off and head off to bed.


For those of you looking for pictures, Jamie's from my trip to Houston are already on facebook and mine (which are mostly if not all of him) will be coming in the near future.

On that note, I'm off to bed. Tomorrow it's back on the road to Savannah!

Ciao,
Julianna

Traveling Girl

Well, I'm giving in. A blog for my journeys. But, when you think about it, isn't all of life a journey? I can't promise this will be very consistent, even during my actual traveling this summer, but I shall try. Pictures will of course be posted to Facebook, and much more consistently (hopefully).

Anyway, the journeys begin thursday with a quick trip down to Houston to visit Jamie, followed by Savannah Sunday through Saturday. I'm so excited!!

Well, that's all for now,

Hasta luego,

Julianna
