Late Birds Don't Get a Treat

Our Spring Break, or excuse me, Mid-term Break plans are more or less finalized. I always expected it to be expensive because, well, it's a week in Italy. We made it worse though by waiting and waiting to finally book things which causes a whole host of little inconveniences - the ticket prices went up from 1p to £19.99 each way and, for the first few days of our stay, the 5 of us are split into two different hostels. We're staying at a campsite in Venice because all the relatively cheap hostels were booked, but I'm excited about it; it almost seems nicer than some of the hostels. Still, the moral of the story is to just get your act together and book it. You learn from everything. Including this nifty billboard Meg and I saw on Superbowl night at the bus station:

Our Ireland plan may be changing, but we're not sure to what. We've been looking into some cheaper areas of interest including Krakow (Poland), Berlin, Munich, and other German locations. We want to go to Ireland too, but we'll see what happens. I have yet to find a cheap way to get there, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
