Comment:

My sister is about to embark on a great adventure. She's been dreaming about going to Europe for around 15 or so years, first it was Italy with her ex-husband, then it was Ireland. After a ten year marriage and a divorce she started going to a Junior college at 31 and transferred to UC Berkeley. After all these years her dream is finally coming true. She is spending a year abroad (through Berkeley) at the University of Edinburgh. I hope the experience turns out to be everything she always dreamed it would be. I made her this as a send off. She leaves Thursday for 9 months. Now I wonder if this experience will satisfy her travel bug, or just get it going...

Love it. Very nice segues (sp?). Wish I could see the artwork, it always enhances the experience.

Nice Duke's track, by the way. keep forgetting to add them to a comp.

What they said. And although I normally don't care about artwork, I usually like *your* covers...

This will be a good mix for her to "ramble on" to.

Excellent, and I'm sure she will have an excellent time in Edinurgh - make sure she goes to see the Hibs! (although Hearts are doing well)

Fantastic! Such a nice thought and a wonderful mix to go with it Love the Echo & The Bunnymen, 13th Floor Elevators and Reinhardt picks. I hope she loves Edinburgh too - the University's certainly a great way to get to know the place. but as the daughter of an ardent Hearts supporter (top of the league!!) I should really advise against gobi's Hibs advice. ;)

nice - and it will probably just put that travel bug into high gear.

When I saw this mix and noticed a lot of songs I liked, I decided to download some of the others that I wasn't familiar with. Now I am a big fan of "Ready Steady Go", "She's Going",
"Done Laid Around", and "Have Love Will Travel" thanks to you. Thanks!

Travel "bug"? Very funny Buglady. Looks like a great soundtrack to an exciting trip.
