The day that seemed to very far away has arrived! I woke up singing, "Leavin' on a jet plane" in my head. Jerry's first words this morning were, "Rats! I should've watched more Looney Tunes Cartoons. Pepe le Pew would've really helped me with my french!" He would say that.....
We are all packed and miraculously, both suitcases are just over 35 lbs. Ben told us to pack light, and we do what the boy says! Weight restrictions are different in Europe, so we wanted to err on the lighter side so we wouldn't be charged a huge fine. The doggies are packed and ready to head off on their vacation with Auntie Nancy and Uncle John. They have two daschaunds as well, so there's going to be a weiner dog free-for-all at their house.
I have been going over my liimited french vocab. I only took 3 years of it, and that was a REALLY long time ago. Just want to make sure we can ask where a bathroom is located, and be able to ask where to get original Parisienne "french fries".
We won't have access to a computer for a week or so, unless we pay for usage at an internet cafe. After that, we'll be with Ben and he's got his computer with him.
We won't be around total strangers our entire trip. We're meeting a former classmate from college who lives in the Netherlands now and has offered to be our tour guide while we're there. We're hoping to see missionary friends who live near Budapest, as well as another missionary friend who lives close to Venice.
"Au revoir and adieu" for now........Aren't you impressed all ready?
