Here we are. On the plane, flying to Paris. Things have gone really well so far. The kids have had really great attitudes about things, and Betty seems calm. Packing this morning was a dream. The kids had everything ready. I was able to get the car washed, and Chris Condon took us to the airport. I wish she could come with us. I could use her calm.
With France and England mostly planned, it’s really time to turn my attention to the rest of the trip. Holland. Germany. Italy. Switzerland. It’s all going to go really fast I’m sure. I’ve been in contact this afternoon with Veroniek in Holland, and Cinthia in Germany, and Lisa in Italy. And Anna Vincenzi has procured a place for us to stay at a parish in the heart of Rome. I think it will be really cool. What an experience!
On the flight to DC from Detroit I spent a bunch of time writing, and I’m nearly completely caught up. That feels good.
