A quick update

Michael and I went to the Torrey Pines State Reserve in San Diego on Sunday. We swam in the Pacific Ocean which was quite fun. We then went hiking around the seaside cliffs and were greeted with a wonderful view of the beaches and oceans below.


Now we are on the ship moving swiftly through the Pacific Ocean. Luckily I have not gotten particularly seasick yet, but there is a persistent and annoying feeling of dizziness and unease. The ship is pretty amazing and I’m surprised it looks so new. There is not much more to say now, today is an orientation day.

Fantastic times await

I'm in the midst of packing for my 100+ day journey around the world. Deciding what to bring would be impossible if it weren't for the recommended packing list I received. Sadly I cannot bring my guitar. Living without it for three months will be tough. Anyway, I'm going to keep this short as I have a lot do to prior to my flight to San Diego tomorrow evening. The itinerary for my trip can be found here. If you'd like to communicate with me you can do so by either posting comments to this blog (short for 'web log') or e-mailing me at aforceno@temple.edu. It's possible that Temple University will suspend my e-mail account since I will not be attending classes there this semester. If your e-mails get returned as 'undelivered' try resending them to t4exanadu@gmail.com. I will try and provide updates here as much as possible in the course of my travels, so stay tuned. I'll see most of you in December!
