Packed

I should have spent more of today out in the garden, but apart from two hours sat drinking tea in the sun with mum I have spent most of the day inside either packing, or reading about the places we’ll pass through on our trip.
We leave tomorrow. First heading for Venice and then, on Monday, on to Ljubljana. From Ljubljana we go to Zagreb, and then from Zagreb to Budapest. I can’t wait. It all sounds so exciting, and I’m feeling much better now than I did in the middle of the week. I probably shouldn’t have gone out on Thursday evening, as I felt so grim, but it was curry, which I am finding more and more difficult to resist over the years. We all ended up at Masala Zone for grand thalis and (Enid Blyton stylee) lashings of homemade lemonade.
So, now my clothes are folded and my bags are stuffed. The tickets are in my pocket, I have a little bit of currency that Gordon sent me (enough to buy a beer, he says), and my camera is full of freshly-charged batteries. This time tomorrow I should, hopefully, be drinking coffee in St Mark’s Square, my shoes and socks slowy getting soaked as the whole city sinks around me.
The last time I was there, I turned 30. Now I’m closer to 32 than 31, and the scary thing is, that 30th birthday feels like it was just three months ago.
