Look out Europe, here we come!



We’re on the real countdown now…  In exactly one week 11 of my students and I will leave on our 23 day European Capitals trip.  First stop, London.  I’m officially starting my version of the sun dance today, and will continue it everyday until we leave the UK.  Had lunch with my college age son today and he just laughed and laughed when I reminded him that I’m bringing these eleven 17 year old guys to Amsterdam.  What’s so funny about going to Amsterdam with a bunch of teenage boys???   This is gonna be fun.  I’m especially looking forward to my annual excursion to Space Electronique nightclub in Florence.  Just CAN”T GET ENOUGH of chaperoning a bunch of teenagers in a club where they don’t open till midnight and they serve alcohol.  Just CAN”T GET ENOUGH of that!  So, I’m thinking of putting together a sort of scavenger hunt for some of these cities we’re going to.  If anyone has any ideas for any of these places, please let me know!  Time’s running short now!  Here’s the list:  London, Amsterdam, Heidelberg, Cologne, Munich, Innsbruck, Venice, Florence, Assisi, Rome, Lucerne, Paris & Madrid.  Come on y’all… help a girl out!
