Last minute questions/reminders

Everybody,

Some more questions:

Do we have any vegetarians? If you want to go vegetarian, apparently that's possible, but it's an all or nothing deal; once veggie, all veggie.

Second, on our second night we'll be having traditional British fish and chips for dinner. I reccommend that everybody partake, but if anyone is opposed for some reason, and isn't a vegetarian, I need to know if you want me to put you down for a burger. You have until tomorrow night. Then you're a fish and chips.

So far I've received only one "no" vote for the Jack the Ripper tour, but luckily it's one of our adults, so if you still don;t want to go we can make that happen, but you need to get back to me as soon as possible.

As far as a tour of the catacombs of Paris, I haven't asked out tour guide, Simon, yet, but everyone has seemed to be interested in that, too (save our one adult). Any kids want to opt out of that one, if it happens? If so, again, let me know as soon as possible.

One last packing note: I was reminded of something today while listening to a travel show on the radio: it's possible that the coldest you will be on our entire trip is on the airplane or in one of the airports. Therefore, wear layers. If you're comfortable, they can be bunched up and made into pillows. You do not want to spend the whole flight to London shivering.

Also, make sure your passport is easily accessible Wednesday morning. You don't want to be scrounging around for it when we ask to double-check before the bus leaves, and we don't want to wait until we get you to Portland to find out you forgot it on the kitchen counter and won't be going with us.

I hope the packing is going well for you all. Keep an eye on the email, as we'll be finalizing things over the next two days. I'll also post these last-minute messages on the blog, so that's a fine place to check:

See you all Wednesday morning!
