The Beginning

Note: I took care of signing everyone up who had expressed an interest in getting my blog. I finally found a blog that wasn't going to make you sign up for your own to read mine so yeah for that! Hope everyone enjoys reading my blog while I'm over in Greece!

I woke up this morning and my first thought was... OH MY GOODNESS! I'm leaving the country! TOMORROW!
Needless to say this has been an interesting week. Between my superior avoidance skills in packing and being a case of nerves my mother may be glad to get me out of the house. As she's fond of saying, anything she says at this point is wrong. I think at one point I even said that I didn't want to go. Pure nerves. So nobody volunteer for my spot! Not going to happen!

I will leave my house at around 5 a.m. Yes that does say a.m. For those of you who have been around me early in the morning or had the misfortune to wake me up from a nap you will understand why this is such a big deal. For the rest of you... Let's just leave it at: I like my sleep. My flight from Austin leaves at 8:30. I'll get to Detroit sometime around noon. I leave for the next leg of my journey around 5:30 and arrive in Amsterdam 8 hours later. Then we leave for Greece and finally arrive in Athens at 1:45 pm Thursday.

Here a map of my "flight plan":

My address overseas incase anyone needs it is:
Rebecca Miller
Harding University
37 Klm Leof. Porto Rafti
P.O. Box 268 Markopoulo
19003 Attiki
Greece

MAKE SURE to put enough postage to send it by airmail otherwise it goes by boat and who knows when or if I'll get it!
Hopefully I'll have pictures up and be writing about my adventures in Greece by the end of the week. Keep me in your prayers and thanks for taking the time to keep up me.

Love, Rebecca
