A week to go
This is a travel blog, but I'm still at home. This time in a week I will probably be in exactly the same place - sitting in bed contemplating the trip I am about to embark upon. Can't quite believe I am actually going away. It's been a few years since I left England for more than a couple of weeks 😊.
So what's the plan
Anyone who knows me, knows there is a plan. The planning is almost as exciting as the doing! There
should be a map on this page somewhere showing you where I am planning to go. I'm travelling West to East, via the North and the South. Flying into San Francisco on June 1st, New York - and the city's marathon - is my final destination on November 1st. The map reckons it's about 7,000 miles. It should take 5 months. But seeing as life rarely goes to plan, who knows where I'll end up, or how long it will take 😱.
But first things first...
I have to finish packing. Some things are already winging their way to California. But the rest is decorating my bedroom floor, and the dining room, and the kitchen, the conservatory. Hmmmm....best get up then.

Map
Jen your map is fantastically helpful. I hope I am not alone in having an absolutely terrible sense of North American geography. And all geography come to that. But I'd like to know what Kansas and Missouri have done to offend you- you are narrowly passing by but snubbing them with your non-attendance.
