Less than Two Weeks and Counting....

With only four days left at school, our attention now turns toward Europe. We are packing our bags, practicing our French and Italian, freaking out about Passport delays (well, OK, I'm freaking out, but Eric isn't too worried), watching the rise and fall of the Euro daily (within two cents), debating between checking or carrying on our bags, comparing travel-sized products to find those with less than 3.4 ounces of liquid, and getting more and more excited with each passing moment (but I bet you couldn't tell!)

We will spend 6 nights in Paris, where we hope to see many of the famous sights and museums, stroll along the Seine, visit Monet's garden in Giverny, eat lots of bread and cheese and relax. From Paris, we travel to Switzerland for lots of hiking, biking and eating chocolate and cheese. We then head to Italy for more sight seeing, hiking and eating (I'm sure cheese will somehow be factored in).

So, if you want to hear about our crazy escapades and foibles (and hopefully some fun and enjoyable moments too!) and maybe learn some interesting information about far away places, stay tuned to our blog....

Now you can do pictures and keep us up-to-date while you are in Europe.

This is better than Discovery Travel - Mom will have to be on every night :-)
