					<description><![CDATA[We finally selected a departure date - February 13, 2011.  We are locked in and the countdown is started - 14 more weeks.<br><div class='borderedPhoto'  style='margin-left:10px;float:right;'><a href='/Photos/PhotoView.aspx?imageID=86630' class='photoLink' ><img src='http://img.blogabond.com/UserPhotos/24172/300/DSC-0172.jpg' border=0></a></div><br>The original plan was to wait until the end of March, but we hit our savings goal early and have been planning this trip so long, it's hard to wait any longer.  There's a lot to do to prepare, so we will be busy the next several weeks finalizing the van setup and getting our gear together.  As we make progress on the van we will post photos.<p style='clear:both;'/>So excited!<br>]]></description>
