I guess I have to call this the "Year of Travel". Unoriginal I know but I traveled more this year than I even have.
I started the year by attending a friend's wedding in Costa Rica during the later part of January. An absolutely beautiful country. One day you are hanging out at the beach and the next you are flying down a zip line in the rain forests or repelling down waterfalls next to an active volcano.
Next came my trip to Africa in August. Two and a half weeks. Lions, leopards, elephants, impala, hyenas, giraffes, buffalo...and that was only the first day! The trip of a lifetime - absolutely incredible.
Finished it off with another trip to Oktoberfest in Munich. I had been there a couple of times before but its always so much fun when you are with the right group. There were 40 of us - we had t-shirts made up, went to the beer tents at 11:00 in the morning and drank a shitload of beer until we were kicked out of the tents at the end of the night. Just a great week to get away from reality. But isn't that what it's all about? Busting your ass throughout the year so that when you do get some downtime you can truly enjoy life....
So what does 2006 have in store for me? My plan is to pop the "M" word and start a new chapter in my life.....good times...good times!
