15 Days...

...-well, almost 14 until we have the last of our things moved, and then on to Europa.

Several friends have requested that we revive the blog for the occasion so that we can send out updates from our trip along the way.

It is strange to be taking a trip without going to Denmark...also strange that it still feels in so many ways like the home-country of my heart and yet I've now been back in the U.S. for nearly 9 years! It's very, very hard to believe. Time does indeed fly.

Back to our trip: we start in Paris, then to Taize, then on to Italy- where neither of us have ever been. We've been dreaming of it since our honeymoon. Not sure we ever imagined that our first visit would include two wee-ones, but we are just so excited to be going, and to be sharing it with them. Obviously, none of this would be possible if we weren't able to do our work from just about anywhere. The time-difference makes things a bit challenging, but very doable.

In Italy, we're staying in Lucca for a month, where we've rented our good friend Michela's aunts' house. Then we're taking a ferry to northern Sardinia where we'll stay for two weeks, then drive to the south, where we will also stay for two weeks. At the beginning of July, we'll visit Rome for a week, and then back home to Portland.

So there you have it. The quick run-down of our plans.

Wanna come?

P.S. This pic of K-man and I was taken yesterday at A's preschool. My little dude.
