It's the FINAL COUNTDOOOWNN!

Well, Jake and I embark on our 19 days straight of travel starting tomorrow morning with a flight to Barcelona. That's the start point, the end point is Thessaloniki, Greece and we'll see about all the inbetweens. The idea is to stay as close to sunshine and the coast as possible. word. We understand the awesomeness and craziness that will accompany these next three weeks of adventure. We also understand the homesickness and patrioticness that will stir up in us while we are away from our beloved country for so long. To further that deep seeded understanding here is a list of things we miss from America and things we plan on missing and things we will never take for granted again:

The forbidden C words:
-Chipotle
-Chick-fil-et
-C.O.D. (if you don't know, don't bother asking)
-Chipotle
-Cane's (Bushes personally for me. Sunday nights preferably)

-Vesta and the Broner hat
