Around The World In 80 Days

Well, it’s more like I merely ENTERED the world 80 days AGO, but that’s just a tiny semantic.  I digress from my HUGE NEWS and would like to happily announce I just received my passport in the mail.  This means many great things … first of which, I can start living up to the intrepid traveler reputation I am trying so hard to build. Secondly, I will have ID to get into bars if needed.

My first stop on the travel list will most likely be Canada known as The Mother Land to my Dad. It’s where my Dad and his entire family were born.  I look forward to my first trip to a land where the maple syrup flows freely, hockey and la crosse reign supreme and the people are a lot more warm than the climate usually is (just don’t try to order and iced coffee at the Wellington Grill warns my Mom).

In addition to my passport allowing me the ability to travel anywhere in the world, it is the first of many steps towards making me a dual citizen so I can legally dodge a draft and flee to Canada if I ever have to because in our house we believe war is good for ‘absolutley nothin’ (I can say it again, y’all).

See everyone in my travels – your friendly American Canadian, McLean!!!!!
