crypticreign left after watching a movie, I've been thinking about my trip.
- I think I really want to leave on Friday. Otherwise I wait til Monday, and Frankly, it's worth it to me to have the weekend in London (*ahem* Camden. We shop now, ya!) Browsing BA.com I've found that it's effectively $30 more to fly out on Friday instead on Monday. Seems worth it to me.
- I'm also very nervous about making a connection from Leipzig to London. I don't relish spending ALL day on planes. I'm considering taking a hotel near Heathrow and staying over Tuesday night, and taking one of the first flights home on Wednesday. I can then head to my client midday, and not worry about rushing around AND buy myself another night with my pet. One of the BA flights leaves at 10:30 AM, gets to Boston by 1PM. I can hit my client by 4, I hope, then home to do laundry and go to bed for work the next day.
- REALLY want some sort of map and guidebook for Leipzig, and not finding it. Iknow it's not a major city, but it's more like a comfort thing. I LOVED my maps for London and Scotland, and even my NYC one. It's just - nice - to have the not lost abilty. *shrugs* I'm still concerned about travelling in Europe. It's not the same as going from Boston to say, Atlanta. I can find that info out. *sighs* I think I just need to speak to some travellers about options. Maybe email the Americans in Leipzig list for advice.
- DID see some maps for Germany. Leipzig is" closer" to Berlin than Munich, I needed to see it. I'm worried aboutle2pold's potential ability to get there. Again, this is why I NEED to make my decisions and start my research.
On a tangent, I was naughty tonight. Spent most of my bonus but worth it. Dinner for myself and P, some cheap dvds, including Reign the Conqueror volume 1. And then the ITrip for my Ipod. My Belkin just doesn't cut it. I'll see how this one works. Plus I DID buy a gift. Not to be too selfish.
Enh. I can think about this tomorrow. I should head to bed soon, in case I actually have to go shopping. I never made it to the store tonight, so I need food through Monday. By food I mean junk *grins* I have actual OK food, but it's not fun!
