Ugh. Airplanes. 😉

Did a LOT of traveling and successfully made it from Denver to Guam! Woohoo!

Saw many things a long the way. Here are some pics I took. 

Carrots make me sooo happy.

Later tonight we'll take the flight over to Japan and be there.

Travel Journals

So yes. I will admit that I have spent more time as of now working on the covers of my journals than actually packing. But that all changes. Cause except for a little detail I can't take care of my self I am DONE! 

And the coup de grâce:

Europe Finale

Fished out all of the paper souvenirs (not including my journals etc.) and laid them out. Wrappings not included.

Got my new backpack for the trip!

Wohoo!

Aaanndd we're back!

Hello there everyone! Thanks for hanging in there and not abandoning me. The past few months have been pretty uneventful. Being in public school really puts a damper on traveling. Good news first: I am happy to announce that coming May 25 (the end of this month) I will board a plan headed toward *drumroll please!*

Guam!

The sponsors and guides of this trip are my grandparents. Here's the story: every time one of their granddaughters turns 15, they take us on a trip to places that they and our parents lived together. This time the full trip will be to Guam, then Japan, and finishes with Korea. (Map is at the bottom)

Dear followers, you will be happy to know that I also will be documenting this trip as it happens. That's right, real time coverage. The boss is back in town. Keep checking for any and all updates.

Thanks for reading,
-Sage


P.S. Here's that map!
