Its the day before we leave and I think we've got everything together. However, I am trying to do the on-line check in to print off our boarding passes and the website won't cooperate! It sits trying to load a page until it tells me that I have timed out! I guess I will try from home and if that doesn't work, I can check in at the airport. Its just that I like to have everything organized and not having my board pass makes me un-organized!

So far, we have packed as we intended. One checked bag and one carry on bag. We still have a couple of things to put in but I think we can do this. It will be way better than hauling around 4 bags like we did last time.

Hope the next time I blog, we are in Philadelphia waiting to fly to Frankfort and on to Barcelona!

Ramon and Violet in Italy

We fly to Barcelona on Sept 1, 2011 (my birthday) and spend a couple of days there before embarking on the Norwegian Cruise ship "Epic" and visiting Florence, Rome, Naple and Palma before returning to Barcelona. That's the Reader's Digest version with the full novel to follow over the next couple of weeks. Today, we are starting the packing with the idea in mind that we will go light! We'll see what we end up with......
