Brand New Camera

Yesterday Adam got me a new camera!!! It's kind of an early-Christmas-present/you-were-sick-and-I-wanted-to-cheer-you-up/congrats-on-the-new-job gift. No matter the reason, it was really sweet and I'm really excited about it!!! So strep throat and all, I went for a little walk around the neighborhood to try it out today. Here are my pictures...

Hello. Welcome to my travel blog. Starting November 5th I will be leaving the wonderful USofA to start my career as a flight attendant with the Irish carrier Aer Lingus. In Ireland I will be taking part in a 7 week training program and I plan to use this blog as a way to keep touch with friends and family while I am away. So IRELAND here I come!!!
