Just like everyone else going on the trip I super excited as you could probably tell by my count down.<\/p>\n<p>So far on my check list I got my wall converter for all my chargers. Lucky for I my chargers work on 240 voltage so I didn&#8217;t have to spring for the expensive voltage converters. That is about all I have done so far. Next on my list though is to go to the bank and exchange some currency.<\/p>\n<p>Now as for the weather up there I am not too worried. I am kind of a hot box. It runs in the family. When I say hot box I mean like chilling on my Uncle&#8217;s patio in like -4 degree weather in my boxers. Hopefully it snows there I am really due for a good snowball fight. Last time I had one I got my Dad right in the back of the head. Thankfully he took it like a champ. I actually just had dinner with my Mother&#8217;s best friend tonight. The purpose of this dinner was so she could tell me all about Ireland. She actually just got back from Ireland on Thursday. She told me while she was there they actually had a snow storm and they are having record breaking temperatures for this time of year. Although she discovered that I won&#8217;t be in southern Ireland the whole time so there wasn&#8217;t much to explain.<\/p>\n<p>Well, that is it for now! I am really really excited. This is actually my first blog ever. Hope I did well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have 6 days 17 hours 23 minutes and 48&#8230; 47&#8230;46&#8230;45&#8230;44 seconds, or 61 hours, or 9682 minutes, 580932 seconds left until I get on my plane.
