Made it to the airport, and my bike and bags are checked in. I’ll meet up with Zach in Amsterdam where we will fly together to Warsaw. I found a cool warm showers host to stay with for two nights, so we should have a fairly easy adjustment and time to check out the city.
I say this every year, but this might have been the most last-minute scrambling preparation of any tour yet. I had a bicycle/music campout last weekend that rolled straight into an overnight camping/hiking in the sierras, so I only had two days to prep. On top of that, our crazy government got even more crazy this week and I had a bunch of extra work to do in addition to wrapping up my projects. But it was all totally worth it (the camping, not the fascism). I’m pretty grateful to have great friends to go on adventures with.
