Leaving Prague, Heading south by bike... it begins..

Hello there. This is Greg Weckenbrock, and I'm headin out. Goin south for as far as Istanbul, for as little as however far we get. Over the next two months, my friend Fitzy and I (later to be joined by Joel- can't wait buddy, get over here as quick as you can...) are biking south, from Prague, through the former Yugoslavia, into Bulgaria, perhaps down to Istanbul, then up through Romania, and back to Prague. -roughly a circle. I've enjoyed my time in this wonderful city, but the city life's not for me and I've been jonesin' for some open space. So Tomorrow we take to the road and see where it goes. I'm extremely excited and ready. We've been planning this (evolution of a) trip for the better part of 3 years. It's finally happening. And we stand now on the cusp: watching a dream coming true before our very eyes... and it feels... I can't quite explain... but how could we be anywhere else? I'll keep you updated as we progress. Until then, take care of yourselves; and each other, we all could use it. All the best and with laughter, and love,
-Greg
