I can't believe it's just a day 'til vacation! We've been planning this for so long it feels kind of surreal that it's almost here.

So here's our itinerary:

Wednesday: In a plane, spending the night at a Heathrow hotel.
Thursday: Pick up the car, head to Avebury. See the standing stones, I'd like to see Silbury Hill, and keep an eye out for aliens and ghosts!
Friday: We'll be heading to Brize Norton, but on the way will probably stop at Bath and Salisbury (the Magna Carta!)
Saturday to Friday: Staying in Brize Norton, day trips out to Oxford and rambling around the Cotswolds. Also: Blenheim Palace, and possibly Warwick Castle, and whatever else strikes our fancy. There's a hillside chalk horse that's a must-see as well.
Friday to Monday: All Tomorrow's Parties in Minehead! This time I will not spend a night drinking questionable Dutch gin and a 2-liter bottle of Strongbow.
Monday to Wednesday: London! Must see: Victoria & Albert Museum, London Old City ghost walk.
Wednesday: In a plane. Attempt to sleep because I have to be at work the next day (summer associates start that week and we'll have to train the kiddos on... everything. Summer associates generally know very little about the law).

The hardest part is leaving the bunnies behind, but they'll be in good hands.

Have fun. I think I went to Warwick Castle - I believe it has weird wax figures. And London walks can be fun too - I think I did a Jack the Ripper one - anyway, have a super time!

Man, you guys being gone this long is gonna put a real crimp in our "Hey, let's call Jen and Drew and see if they want to go out for a drink/come over and eat meat/go out for a drink" plans that generally happen on the weekends.

No really, have fun! Take a silly picture of yourselves for me!
