Final Countdown!

So I have 6 days until my parents and I leave for Nassau! I feel like
there is SO much to do still! I've paid for a couple independent trips
(one in Morocco and one in China) and I'm learning to keep a close eye on
my money. I think I might upload Quicken to take care of my money
spending!!

Speaking of money, I got my foreign cash today. Its so cool. Viet Nam's
bills have a watermarked plastic piece in them. A lot of the Asian
currency seem to have current leaders or at least leaders that aren't as
old as the ones we have on US bills. Also, It seems like the US is
different in that there is only one language on the bill. haha China has
several it seems like. South Africa has animals on theirs which I thought
was kinda cool. Mostly though, getting all these different currencies
makes it all the more real that I'm doing this, it makes it seem like its
going to happen a lot sooner that I think.

If anyone has anything they specifically want from someplace that isn't
huge or really expensive or hard to explain to customs let me know. (for
example, I'm not going to bring back any swords from Japan. Sorry.) I'm
going to keep a list and as long as its not unreasonable I'll try to get
it, or at least a picture :)

Love you all!
