The countdown begins . . .


Less than a week to go. And it's beginning to sink in.

I watched the Gran Prix of Monaco this weekend, noticing the beautiful, twisting streets around centuries-old architecture, and it finally started becoming real.

In less than a week, our feet will be stepping on Mediterranean soil.

Our passports are in order, we have accomodations for the children and the dog, we have a new international calling plan for Crystal's cell phone, and all the deliveries have been stopped.

Now, we just have to find a way to keep ourselves amused during the five-hour layover in Atlanta before the 12-hour flight to Italy . . .

What architecture? I couldn't get past dreaming of two-wheeling along those winding roads...

I've dreamt of renting a Ducati and exploring those roads, too.
