The Fantastic Amazing Wonderful Adventure of the Century

So one of my best friends and I are going on a fantastic European Adventure this summer. This is something that has been in the works for a while and now it is finally becoming something real! I mean - this is something we've been planning since we were freshmen in college! (um... which was last year...) But anyways. We have been planning where we are going to go and how long we are going to stay in each country and how much it is going to cost (which is going to be more than we can afford, but we will make it work. We will probably come back a little skinnier...)

During our search, we have found little humorous facts along the way and I shall share them with you here.

We want to go to Greece because I have distant relatives that live there and we could stay there for free. And it would just be awesome. So we have been looking for ways to get there and they are few. One way is by boat. We would board a large ferry and depending on how much money you have (*reminder: we have very little) you can spend the time of travel in a room with beds, on the deck, or anywhere in between. Given the monetary position of Alexis and me, we were considering the deck choice. Until we noticed the travel time was 21 hours! Because standing and/or sitting on a deck of a boat for an entire day and night is not extremely appealing, we continue our search to find a way to get to Greece. If anyone has any ideas, feel free to share...

Now that I write this, I realize this is the only funny/ semi-funny thing we have come across. But if anything else comes up, I will write about it.

But this adventure is sure to be the best one ever. I am so excited and I will be sure to post stuff while I am there.
Yup. That's it - Alexis Hales. Chelsea Katseanes. Two backpacks and no fear. (or at least little to no fear...)
