17 flippin days!!!!

Alright so I promised to keep these short and sweet!

As of now I think I have everything I need in my possesion for the semester. I just need an extra battery for the camcorder and a world map.

So I found out what trips I am taking, and I got them all except for a homestay in Tokyo. I have also planned out and paid for spain!

My To-Do List
Pack, exchange for foreign cash, get home, get to Canada, buy a world map, and extra battery

Spain- Cadiz-Seville-Granada-Malaga (churches, bullfights, flamenco dance, river cruise, La Alhambra, Mediterranean Sea, and ATV (super fast trains).

Morocco- Berber Villages and trek through the Atlas Mountains (trying to get a dinner with a Moroccan family, but I'll see you that goes)

Ghana- service, slave ports, village on stilts (should be interesting to see what my ancestors went through)

South Africa- theater, wine production, spiritual diversity, boungey jumping, shark diving, hiking, robben island, townships

Mauritius- Vacation #1

India- Chennai-Delhi-Agra-Varanasi (got my plane info and am ready to go!)

Vietnam- I AM GOING TO CAMBODIA!!! (Angkor Wat- from the Tom Raider movies) also CuChi tunnels and other vietnam exploration

China- Hong Kong-Beijing-Great Wall-Xi'an-Shanghai* (still waiting on ticket confirmation)

Japan- not sure what I am doing the first half but the second half I have a homestay in KOBE

Hawaii- My birthday and vacation #2

San Diego- so I found out that my brother has a national tournament the weekend I get back, so I think I might be coming home to an empty house. (yes i know my place in the family household, I am gone for 4 months and everyone just deserts me.)

Thats all for now, I am still tutoring, handing out keys and selling knives. I hope to be home in a week and a half and be on my way around the world in 2 and half weeks.

Until next time keep it real
Marcus
