Summer Travels

I am getting ready to embark on my summer travels with Semester at Sea. This summer I will be a Resident Director about the MV Explorer and traveling through Europe and Russia. I leave for Orlando, FL on Thursday to see my family and then on Saturday I fly to the Bahamas to board the shop on Sunday. I am so excited!! eeeekkk!! But also a bit nervous and even sad to be leaving for the summer. Madison, WI is such a great place to be over the summer and more than anything I will miss my partner until she joins me for the last three countries.

Here is my itinierary:

1. The Bahamas - June 12 (staff training begins)
2. Nova Scotia - June 17 (pick up the students)
3. Reykavik, Iceland - June 23 to June 26
4. Bergen, Norway - June 29 to July 2
5. St. Petersburg, Russia - July 6 to July 10
6. Gdansk, Poland - July 13 to July 16
7. Antwerp, Belgium - July 20 to July 23
8. London, England - July 25 to July 29 - (Sarah joins me!)
9. Dublin, Ireland - July 31 to August 3 - (meeting Mom & Art)
10. Bilbao, Spain - August 6 to August 10 - (Sarah departs)
11. Ft. Lauderale, Fl - August 21

I'll be 30 on Friday and get to celebrate with my family in Orlando - a rare treat. I am really looking forward to it. I am excited about being 30!

Throughout the summer I'll be posting photos and pictures from my journey. More to come soon!!
