On Saturday evening Mike and I decided to sit down and watch a movie, the movie was titled "Into the Wild." It is about a college graduate who runs off to Alaska..that is about as far as I got, as it was late and we had to get up for school the next morning. Mike stayed up much later, getting deeper into the movie. When I awoke and came down to start lunches and make the coffee I noticed something on the fridge next to our family photos..it was a hand written quote from Mike on a blank piece of white paper.
"The core of a man's spirit comes from new experiences." -Alex Supertramp, Into the Wild
What??!!! This is SO unlike Mike, I am normally the philosophical one who runs around quoting authors....
With that said, by Sunday afternoon (after hearing Jake was having a three day weekend at school for the Prophet's Birthday) we were booked for Cairo, Egypt.
We leave tomorrow and can't wait!
