The Great Planners

Today we spent 4 hours planning our trip. Everything was very expensive because we have a break in less than a month and hadn't even decided where to go. We were going to go to Tuscany and see the countryside, but airfare was ridiculous and we could only fly from BVA, which is marked as a Paris airport, even though it's about two hours from Paris. We then went into a big session of where to go: find another way to Tuscany? Corsica? Travel around France? Poland and the Czech Republic? Spain? Finally I pushed for Ireland. Everyone was concerned that it was expensive, and for flights and hostels, it ended up being nearly 300 dollars, but honestly, we've been saving up for this. We were told that we'd be needing to have at least four times that much, and we've got 4 breaks. This is what all of us wanted to do the most, and we're all really happy with it. I'm obviously going to be killed to death by Jeff and Linda if I don't get something good for them while I'm there, but I'll be sure to do that. Fortunately, next time we'll make sure to plan ahead better, so hopefully it'll be less expensive for airfare. But Ireland is right there at the top of my list and I'll make sure to post some good photos!
