Lazy day far away...

So, I put this countdown clock on here to remind myself that I need to spend my time more wisely. This weekend I had fun, but it was an extremely lazy weekend where I did not travel nor did I do anything in town. I do have a good excuse. What is it? One word: Germany. I leave this Thursday; I'll be flying out of Paris (back to Charles de Gaule) and land in Munich around 17h30. I haven't been this excited since I first arrived; I feel like the adventure is starting all over again, which is something I've never felt in the United States. I'm traveling alone, which I'm really excited about. I prefer traveling alone because I can move at my preferred pace and I can do whatever I want to do. I have some great stuff lined up in Germany, as I should because it's (pause) my last big adventure in Europe. After Germany, I only have an excursion to Pont du Gard and then I'll be staying in Paris for a couple of days. After that, it's back on the big plane saying the two words that I hate thinking about, "au revoir." (INSERT SAD FACE)
Nevertheless, just reflecting on all I've done, I think I've done this continent some justice, but I can't make this statement official until my voyage in Germany is complete. Skype is an incredible thing, but it has made me extremely homesick--keep calling me guys, I enjoy it very much. My uncle and I took online chess to a level I don't think has been done in the history of mankind (we're proud of that one). Seeing the little princess and hearing her mumble "mmmmm" is fantastic. Wishing my mother a happy mother's day was ideal, as well as seeing my father (who always has my back, on holidays and non-holidays alike). Seeing my grandfather and being able to tell him about Chamonix and Mont Blanc. And of course, finally seeing ma chérie and getting to hear her voice. Thank you, Skype.
And as always, I love reading comments on the blog and I'm glad you all are enjoying your time on this trip as well. Please continue commenting and stay tuned because as of right now I have four weeks left and I have no intention whatsoever of wasting them. Prepare for the record books folks, we have some getting lost to do...
