The Night Before

It is the night before I leave for Italy and I am getting my things together, hoping that I am not forgetting anything that I really should take with me. My plane takes off from SFO at 3:30pm from SFO and I will land in Paris 11 hours later. I have a 3 hour lay over in France and then its a 2 hour flight to Rome. When I land JCU students will be at the airport to take us to the campus where we can pick up our appartment keys. From there we will be driven to our respective appartments. Anne will hopefully be my room mate unless JCU screws that up. Anne and Joe will be arriving together earlier in the day so I will meet up with them for the evening and attempt to stay awake long enough to catch a brief glimps of Rome. Other than that not much is happing for the first day of Italy. I will try and post here as often and in as much detail as I can, but being abroad saps the mind, or so I have heard. I will also post a small selection of pictures here so you can get an idea of what it looks like on my adventures around Italy and Rome. For now, its back to packing...
