So as it always does before I start on a new adventure, my stomach has decided to show me that I am a little bit nervous. I don’t know why I would get butterflies before a trip when I taken quite a few in the last four years. You would think that over time I’d get used to it, but I guess that’s not the case. The normal issues are going through my head, and I guess my stomach, of did I make the right reservations? What about when I get there, will I be able to find the hotel? Am I going to forget something important, like my passport?

Regardless, I’m on my way to Morocco at about 5:00AM tomorrow morning, and except for actually packing I’m pretty much done with everything that I “think” I need to do.

About the blog. As far as I know the comments are working, though I haven’t checked it recently, and everything else seems to be working just fine. Hopefully there won’t be any problems while I’m on the road. Note: I checked, and the comments are not working… if I have time I’ll look into it, but the amount of spam that I was getting makes me think that I’ll leave it as is.

If you’re curious on where I’ll be going in Morocco I’ve included the map from Geckosadventures. I’ve decided to go with the tour group that I went to China and Vietnam (as well as a few other destinations) because last summer I didn’t feel like I really had that much fun backpacking around Western Europe on my own. I always have to qualify that statement with, it was a must see for me, so I had to do it, but it lacked the culture shock that I really hunger for. Western Europe culture is very much like the US and because of that I just went to see “things” instead of getting immersed into an alternative world. :)
