Ready, Set, Go!!

We are finally ready to go! Our departure date is March 25, 2008. Mom and Carol arrive here on March 20th so we can all pack together and spend a few days making sure we have all of our bases covered.

It's so exciting to see our dream coming true!

I will be blogging while we are on the trip and invite you all to log in from time to time to read about our adventures. Cari has used the computers in the internet cafes in Italy so she will help me log on and update.

More when we arrive in Italy. Our first stop: Milan. Then it's on to Verona and Venice. From there we go to Florence where we have an apartment for a week. During our time there, we are going to take a 2 day detour to Paris, France. After Florence time is finished, we are going to Rome.

Cari will be returning home after our week in Rome. The rest of the trip is a surprise. We're not sure what we are going to do right now. Perhaps, Cinque Terre on the coast or ???????? Check back and find out.

Love, Kathy

Go Girls,
My husband and I took almost that same trip in 1989. It will be fun for me to see where you go which will bring back good memories to me. The Dromo in Milan was one of my favorites. Thank you for including me in your blog. Maxine Chisholm

This is my first experience on a blog so I am having an adventure too. Marion, take a lot of photos and we can go to lunch when you return. Laramie is covered with snow today...our usual Springtime in the Rockies. Love, Maxine
