Sitting here trying to figure out why I am doing this - guess I am thinking this would be a fun way to keep anyone who might interested up to date (well as up to date I keep this blog) on my wanderings and my musing about such wanderings. Disclaimer: there may be a post here and there about my staying puts as well.
Side bar but related: I just finished reading "Still Alice" a story (fiction) about a very brilliant woman who has early onset alzheimers so now I wonder about the title of my blog.... but not all who wander are lost. By the way the book was great - a bit unsettling and reduced me to tears occasionally but a good read.
As I write this I am fully packed and ready to fly to Portland (once I water a few plants and take my good friend out for breakfast who is taking me to the Redmond airport). I will spend the weekend getting some Tabor time, granpasan joins us on Sunday afternoon. Oh, and we'll spend time with Tabor's mommy and daddy - Corey and Danica!
On Monday morning Gordon and I will head to PDX and fly to FLR via AMS and CDG. Translation: we fly from Portland to Florence, Italy via Amsterdam and Paris. AMS and CDG are only brief layovers - only sightseeing will be in the airports there.
We start in Florence, take a train to Venice where we embark on a 7 day cruise with a stop in Croatia and stops in Greece, back to Venice. From Venice we are back on the train but go to Rome where we will stay for a week prior to heading back over the pond. So, with any luck I hope to get the hang of posting in internet cafes here and there. With lots of luck I will get the hang of uploading photos. I am sure the pictures will be the main attraction here!
Be sure to take some good touristy photos at ams and cdg
