I thought i'd be done packing by 10, which would be a significant improvement from when i normally sleep before trips, but after a little ballatore and some good times with my friends i ended up sleeping at 2am.

fun entry
I dont' know you, but I saw your entry as I went in to ck my son's blog. He is in Spain for the summer and I happened to see your entry and read it. we love soccer too. My son, like you, didn't take his USA jersey, cuz he was afraid it would make him stand out like a beacon for theives. But we are excited for the World Cup. Best wishes for you for a great vacation. Great photos. And "good on ya" for admitting you're Catholic. Us too. M Denton Idaho
