Hey everyone! Here's a picture of the hotel where we'll stay:

And "homestar" (AKA Bryce Pudding hahaha!), in response to your comments: Yes, you are the only one who has commented our travel blog. But a certain tool on this website tells me how many times the blog has been viewed, and that number is well over 70! In any case, thanks for commenting.

So we're leaving the 29th. And our anticipation is only increased by the hustle and bustle of last minute preparations, such as learning a few words in Turkish, making sure we have all the clothes we need, figuring out who will water our plants, etc.

We've also figured out our flight schedule. It goes something like this: Tulsa to St. Louis, St. Louis to somewhere else in the US that's not NY, that place to London, and London to Cyprus. On our way there we won't stay in London very long; that'll wait until our trip back.

As we plan what we'll do and see in Cyprus, keep in mind any of you can ask us to take pictures of any particular thing you want to see. To comment on this blog you have to be a member, but it's free, they don't ask for loads of info or send you lots of emails, and you aren't required to have a blog. If you click on "comments" below there'll be a link where you can join. There are three major castles in Cyprus; I know we'll see at least one of them, considering we'll stay across the street from it. There's also a fantabulous beach, picturesque port, Othello's Tower (Othello by Shakespeare was set in Cyprus), and bunches of other things. And now I won't write anything else until we're actually ready to leave. Ciao!

Our travel was delayed... obviously...but this time we're not leaving on a tuesday, the superstitious "bad luck" day for some Cypriots. I think it has something to do with the fall of Rome. Anyway, we've been shopping for travel clothes and getting our suitcases out and other travel prep things. No pictures yet, of course. More later!
