America?

My time here is coming to a close....tomorrow I leave the city Beautiful and head down to the capital to close out some things before I fly out next Wednesday for some travel filled fun. Of course the common question is....how are you feeling? Honestly it doesn't seem real. 22 months ago I got on a plane and ended up here....since then I've been on planes so many times i have lost track, so it doesn't seem like I'm leaving...for good at least. Am I excited? I guess you could say that... I'm looking forward to seeing my family, and I'm stoked about going to Israel and Britain on the way home....we'll see how that goes first....I still have about a month before I'm on American soil.....

Here is a top ten of things I'm MOST looking forward to in the States

1) Obviously friends and family (if this wasn't on here, I think I would be ostracized)

2) Pollo Tropical....For those of you NOT from South Florida, you are missing out on this GREAT cuban fast food restaurant.

3) The Beach!

4) Buying and riding a scooter....why not a car you ask? Well scooters a) are cheaper...you can buy a brand new scooter for under $3000, b) have GREAT gas mileage, usually over 100mpg c) are a lot GREENER than cars especially SUVs. (by greener I mean, more environmentally friendly, not the color green of course) d) are cute, and super fun to ride around on!

5) Drinking water from the tap!!!!!!!!! If you only knew how many hours I have stood next to the water filter waiting for it to fill up the bottles!!

6) The $3 sales at OLD navy!!

7) Thanksgiving at Granny's House

8) Going outside after dark

9) Playing volleyball at the University of Miami's Sand courts!!!

10) Drying my clothes in a dryer so I don't have to iron everything. (Admittedly lazy)

This list was a lot harder than that the previous list...I'll try to post again before I fly out...hopefully with pictures!
