Honeymoon plans

We bought our tickets for the honeymoon, which means I'm starting to get really excited about it. We'll be in Europe for two weeks, splitting the time between Barcelona, Paris, and Ireland. There are so many things we have planned that I'm super excited about.

We'll spend some time exploring Barcelona, and probably get in any beach time Kevin wants while we're there. We're planning to take an overnight train from Barcelona to Paris, because traveling by train is fun and it will give us a chance to see some of the countryside. We're going to tour the Aran Islands and check out a distillery or two in Ireland. We're also definitely going to spend a night in a castle.

Beyond that, I'm hoping we'll have a lot of time to just relax and wander around. Go to some bars and see some local music. Soak up the fact that we won't have any responsibilities for two whole weeks.

I'm also really excited because the flights to and from Europe aren't actually that long. Every time I've gone, I've been living farther west, so the travel takes a whole day each way. But the flights we booked are comparable to flights from DC to California, time-wise. It's still a good chunk of time, but it doesn't feel quite as daunting as I was expecting. Europe is so close!
