I mentioned a few months ago that my wife get to take an all expenses paid trip. we are set for an 8 day cruise around the mediteranean august 12-20. spain, italy, france, 7 different ports such as Barcelona, Rome, Nice, Marseilles, etc.

we've been pretty pumped for this obviously. i'm not generally a nervous type and i'm definitely not someone that is always fearing the unexpected. i am, however, a little concerned about travelling right now. London has been hit twice, and apparently they picked up another guy from an unrelated cell today, Egypt got hit with 7 different bombs today.

we really want to go to Europe, but i've just got an uneasy feeling. i know the odds of something happening are astronomically low. but on the other side Mr Murphy tends to stack his law against me.

if we back out of the trip, i can exchange it for a week at Beaches Turks and Caicos resort, another resort in the British Virgin Islands, or the Bahamas. It will still cost us nothing. nothing except the opportunity to see some beautiful parts of Europe.

Serious questions: am i just being irrational in my concern here? would you switch trips if you were in my shoes? any thoughts and comments are welcome.
