My first European excursion

So Bobbie Jo, Jennifer, and I made it back safely to Oxford. Amazingly there were no major catastrophes. In hindsight, the thought of us three backpacking through foreign cities with Jennifer's street smarts, Bobbie Jo's ability to blend in a crowd, and my sense of direction, it's truly a miracle how successful our little trip was. We didn't lose anything permanently (there was a good couple of hours that we lost Jennifer in the Vatican, but I'll go more in depth on that later), nothing was stolen, and good times were had by all. I absolutely fell in love with Italy especially Venice. I just wish that we could have stayed longer. However, I'm thoroughly exhausted and quite excited of the thought of doing nothing for the next few days. Bobbie Jo went home this in the wee hours of this morning, and now I have a good five days before Tyler's arrival, so I have no choice but to blog, facebook, and reminence. I really don't know where to begin recalling our adventures. I suppose I'll post a "few" key pictures first then tell later.
