Planes Grounded

I've been watching as air travel has ground to a halt in EU. I worried for a second about how I would deal with all the arrangements and the kids if this happened to us. Then I realized it would actually be cause to celebrate! When I was 18 there was an air controller strike and I was 'stuck' in London for an extra week. It was great! Is it wrong to wish for this kind of bad luck???

Today I learned how to attach pictures to the blog!

This is the EU '06 group in Rome.

Countdown - 83 to go...

Time to start getting the final details pulled together so the trip runs smoothly. One of the biggest is getting this blog up and running. One more new thing for me to learn. Our first attempt at a title was "Wanderlust" but when I search engined there were already 8 other blogs with the name. Scratch that. "I'd rather be in Europe" was the second attempt and to my surprise no others under that name so, there it is.
