'Twas the night before Semester at Sea

San Diego, CA  January 9th, 2014 9:46pm
Goodbyes suck, period.

Today, in typical Amanda-travel style, I finished packing at two in the morning. Which was rather entertaining since we left for the airport at three thirty am! Momma Beekman and I spent the day walking around the San Diego bay front and exploring the city.

Last minute stresses are finally falling into place, and the excitement of the trip is setting in. Around 50 Semester at Sea students took over the first floor of the Hard Rock Cafe and we had dinner together. I made plans with Miles and Melissa to swim with sharks in Cape Town, and stay in the Marina Bay Sans Resort in Singapore (apparently there is an infinity pool on the top- google it, its insane). My mom went to a parent seminar on the MV Explorer, where she was able to walk around the entire cruise ship. She loved it.

There are some great people that are going to be on this trip, and I already know this is going to be a semester to remember!
