Scratch Plan B!

So for the past month, I have been working on a top-secret plan! I had invited someone along for my trip. My mom has a good friend, Chris, who loves to travel and had never been to Europe. He was visiting and I told him about my trip and he was very interested in accompanying me. So, I went into planner mode and began to contact my previously arranged hotels and hostels to see if they would be able to accommodate my changes. They were. I was very excited. Now, I would have someone to photograph me at landmarks and with whom to experience the journey. Also, this would greatly please my two IPMA moms, Elise and Joyce! Yesterday, I was informed that Chris would not be able to join me… So now, it is back to Plan A: Europe Alone.
