Hours to Go

Well here we are. It's now 12:30am. Saturday 10th July, 2010.
Time seems to have caught up with us faster than it ever has, and the hours are rolling by. The ticket is booked for the channel tunnel and the first nights camping is booked and confirmed. Yet something seems quite strange and definately not quite right. Where last year there was all the excitement attached to a new adventure, this year it isn't there.
I'm not quite sure why things would be any different, but the atmosphere just seems undeniably intense. Aly had her foot op. on Wednesday and I can understand why her mum would be uptight, but Aly and I thought about it and talked about it long and hard and today is the day.
I am worried about leaving her whilst her foot is in plaster, but the guys have said they will check in on her every couple of days and so have my parents and plenty of family friends, so she'll get more attention than if I was here.
Hmm... It would seem you cannot everybody happy at same time. Ah well onwards and upwards.
The next time I write it will hopefully be from the sunny shelter of a camp site in Brugge...
I guess, watch this space.
