While this video may not be completely accurate in conveying my feelings, I love the Beatles and it was the inspiration for my blog title. :) Plus it's hilarious! Just be sure to watch it all the way through.
In 10 days the Hubsy and I set off on our international adventure. This trip has been muchly anticipated -- especially since we first got the tickets last March! Hubsy hasn't been back there since he graduated about 3 years ago. However, I take the cake. . . I haven't been back there since my high school graduation ten years ago (man that makes me feel old)! I'm sure things have changed a lot since then; that's what everyone is telling me. Yet, I'm sure it will be the amazing place I remember so fondly. With all this anticipation, I forgot to mention where we are going.... EGYPT! Back to what the natives call "the motherland" with a brief nine hour layover in Amsterdam.
This trip is going to be different than before though. For one, we're married which means completely different activities and even more friends and family to visit. It's almost like cramming two visits into one -- we have his families and my family to visit with and that equals a lot of people, dinners, trips around town, and laughs. Second, I'm older and hopefully wiser than I was the last time as is everyone there. Cousins who were little kids before are now adults in college (which just makes me feel older). Family members have gotten married and have had babies so there's lots of new faces and names to learn. But, I love every minute of it! I just learned a couple of days ago that one of my cousins moved to Argentina! I'm so happy for her but I'll miss seeing her in Egypt. Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes......
In the end, all of these changes don't phase me in the least. I know we will have an amazing time, it may be different but it will be wonderful in a whole new way!
