Phase 3!

By Nithin Coca

Finally!

Months after Ryan, Mike, Ryan, and Aaron, I have also finally solidified my initial itinerary. I booked my ticket to Europe, to begin the first leg of our trip.

Details (also check out Budget - my first read trip purchase!)

March 23rd, 2006 (one month before Ryan and Aaron, 2 months before Mike and Brandle)
MCI - ORD - Frankfurt Germany, to Rome Italy on Lufthansa.

Why Rome? Well, my brother, Ashvin, is going to be spending a semester in Florence, Italy, this coming Spring. So me and my parents are going to visit him. We will be going first to Rome, then to Florence, and then to Milan, where they will fly home and I will continue to explore Italy for another three weeks before hopping on a cheap flight to Madrid. My parents booked their tickets using Frequent Flyer Miles, while I booked a concurrent flight from StudentUniverse (still pretending to be a student). I could have flown for cheaper on Aer Lingus or Scandinavian Airlines, but, my parents were willing to foot the extra cost to have me on the same flight as them. That is factored into the budget.

It's good to finally have a date. Today is Nov 30th, 2005. That means, in less than 4 months, I will be in Europe!
