Well I am back, a personal note first off. As I mentioned in my last post way back in March, I was finishing classes and was looking forward to exams. Well they are over and exams went well, I studied way more than I had to. Knowing that these were the last few exams made me a bit nervous as I knew I had to pass or graduate at a later date. Don't get me wrong, I have never failed a class or come close to it, but for some reason I was extra nervous. Anyway, graduation is this Saturday, and the family is coming over for it. Its which is going to be fun, to bad the apartment will be half packed but that doesn't matter.
Back to the trip, part of the reason I have not been writing on the blog, is that I have been trying to plan the trip itself. It takes a fair bit of planning to be able to line up train times. For example, when we land in Heathrow we have to: Walk down to the "Heathrow Connect" train that will take us to Paddington Station, then we have to get on the Bakerloo subway line which will take us to Charring Cross station, where we can finally catch the train to Dover where we will stay for the night.
The connections and whatnot doesn't intimidate me, its making sure that we get to Charring Cross station on time so we can make it to Dover at a decent hour. We will only be there for the night and we want to have some time to see the cliffs, and catch dinner. The next day it’s up early, probably about 7:00 GMT (3:00 our time) for a "Full-English" breakfast, and off to catch the ferry to Calais and then off to Paris!

Cool pics. I heard your camera had 'an incident'. Hope it gets better soon.
