Finally some travels plans

OK I spend already one month in the some place, of course it happened before and I am enjoying it all the time even more, but it is time to travel:) finally, yupi!

OK I have 3 places on my list:

1. Vancouver and Seattle

This trip is planned for fall break so we will start at 6am from Little Rock and get to Seattle, then we will spend few days in Seattle and move to Vancouver. I still have some concerns if I will get in to Canada (where Vancouver is) because theoreticaly since 1 of March 2008 I don't need vida to Canada, but I need to have machinally readable passport and I have no idea what is that! Most probleby I have it and it will be OK:)

So Vancouver - I have heared a lot about this city, that it is nice and so one, I sill have to check what can we do there but till now looks great.

What was stressfull already - it was to buy tickets. We were buying in 3 people and we had to buy one by one. So the first one was girl from France, she manage to get the ticket very cheaply, thenwhen Mexican guy were trying to buy one it was already 3 times more expensive, but somehow on other page he did it, he bought a cheap ticket, but there was nothing left for me. ANd we were looking and looking and trying to find a solution. So the solution is that I am staying one day longer in Seattle :) missing more classes...

2. New Orleans

Being honest it is one of those places I really want to see. I think the reason why is that I am looking for a cities with specific climate, I prefere them even if they are dirty and dangerous then very good developed industrial cities like most probably Vancouver will be.
Plan to go to New Orleans is rather new but i hope I will manage. One week after the fall break there is a misic festival in this city, looks awsome, mostly rock, but as well some blues and jazz and as far as I know only very good bands are going to play, and the biggest star will be REM (I still remember their songs when I was in primary school and we were dancing to this music in the schools discos, I was maybe 10-12 yrs old).

3. Chicago and Washington

This is combine formal and informal trip. At first I am going to Chicago with my University to participate and Model UN conference:) We are going to represent India and simulate the whole conference - I am going to be a delegate to UNEP - United Nations Environmental Programme. And what is freaking me out is that I have to buy suite! Formal something and I have no idea where to find it. And most probably I would have to wear high hills! Can u imagine me on hing-hills? I can't:)

So I am going there with my university and within the group with another international student from Austra. Then after conference finished (and thanks giving starts) there are some other austrians and one french joining us to visit Chicago together, then we are all together moving to Washington.

And thats all... I still haven't seen any of those places so I cannot write more.

cheers
