Countdown, T minus 2 days......

Well, we are down to the last two days before take-off on our European galavanting. Everything has been bought, as small as possible, and I'm beginning to pack it all in. I want to try and keep our carry-on luggage empty, just in case we need to shuffle weight around, and especially to make room for ALL the goodies we plan on bringing back to our kids!! ( Hope you're reading this guys!)

Made a final swipe of all our reservations last night and realized we'd booked our hotel in Brussels and Paris for the same days!! Thankfully, we were able to change the dates in Brussels, at the same hotel, with no problem. Glad we caught that ahead of time!

Skyped with Ben and he reminded us of everything we should see in Paris, as well as what we should eat. He is the resident expert now.....you know since he's been there 6 weeks now. He did mention that if we want to drink water we need to request "still water", otherwise we will be brought some type of seltzer water, or something with bubbles.

Said good-bye to Bethany as she headed off for her missions trip to Philly yesterday. We both were a little teary.....won't see each other for about 4 weeks. I promised to bring her back high-fashion couture from Paris!!! (or maybe an Eiffel Tower key chain!) Bekah almost had a ride home so we could visit before we left, but it didn't work out. Everyone will be back home for a couple of weeks though after we return and I am looking forward to that maybe more than anything.

Well, lots to do and little time to do it........
