Well...I'm leaving on a jet plane...don't know when I'll be back again...leaving...

[LisaKinVA]

Today is the day.  We're packed up, dh has one major errand to run this am, and then two friends will be driving us and our 24 suitcases + 7 personal items to IAD, and then we will head to Paris, and then onto Naples, Italy.

 

I'll have my computer...but not sure about how the internet access will be.

 

I've been up since 4.  I colored my hair, got involved in an internet debate (with people from Naples), and now it's time for me to get up and face the rest of this crazy day.

 

Love to you all!

 

Ciao!

I love your pre-travel activities - you've obviously lost your mind! ;)

 

Safe travels, and I hope you have a great time!

Oh, have a GLORIOUS time!!

 

(If you need to vent about anything cultural, give yourself permission and don't feel like a whineybrattybaby...change can be exhilarating AND hard, and that's perfectly ok!!)

Isn't it nice to have made it this far? I hope the flight is fine and the the luggage isn't a hassle. And I can't wait to hear about the other side! Good luck!

[FaithManor]

Godspeed, post when you can if it's convenient to do so. We are all so excited for you and your family!

[AmyontheFarm]

Praying you have a smooth trip!  And not one of those bags is lost!

[trulycrabby]

Buon viaggio!

[Angie in VA]

*SIGH* I am sorry I never got to meet you. :(

 

Virginia's loss is Naples, Italy's gain.

Have a safe trip! So the adventure begins...

[Scarlett]

Have fun!

[LisaKinVA]

We made it.  I'll write more about the fun with flying...(whine) later.  I'm just too tired to think straight.  My dh and I have really been up been up the greater part of the past 48 hours.  Wish the kids would go to sleep already (they have gotten their 3rd wind since opening up their  bags and getting into the LEGOs).  Hotel living is already getting a bit old, and it's only day 1 (but I figure it will take us about a week just to figure out how to best arrange our living situation here..

 

Be back later.  Much later.

[Tammyla]

Oh, I'm so happy you made it.  Prayers for a smooth settle-in and of course some good sleep. 

 

I'm so excited for you all!  What an adventure.
