It's been a lot longer in between major trips than I had ever anticipated. It's not that I haven't taken any, but none have been quite up to par for chronicling of Roadtrip Walkabout. The only one of any mention was a long weekend trip in which I took a quick blitzkrieg tour down the lower East Coast hitting Charleston, SC; Edisto Island, SC; Jekyll Island, GA; and St. Augustine, FL. It was a quick but fun mental sanity break that I took on the spur of the moment and other than a nights stay in the exclusive Jekyll Island Club Hotel and visit to the original Ripley's Museum in St. Augustine there wasn't a lot to talk about other than letting the steam in my brain blow out.I've also had some setbacks in trips, with vacations being canceled and rescheduled. Had things worked out I would actually be in the middle of a two week train trip up the East Coast and across the US-Canadian border-states to Seattle and Portland. That trip has sadly been postponed until this December. Some good news however is that my next big trip is scheduled for this March when I spend two weeks in Iceland. This is my first overseas trip and starting shortly I am going to chronicle some of the things I've had to go through to make sure things go smoothly. So look forward to posts coming up in the next months leading up to the trip.
