Food, Shopping, Padova, & Verona with My Cousin

Image
Three very fun days recently flew by with my Cousin Suzi and her friend, Kelley. I was quite impressed when I heard more about their back story as teachers and all the many trips they hosted for young students over the years. They've been chaperones for groups of 40 children (middle school age) to places like: Australia (4x), Costa Rica, Paris & Normandy, England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, Germany, Rome, Italy, South America, etc.  Kelley, me, and Suzi . . . They told me lots of stories from their many years of adventures and I hung on every word. For the first several years, they worked with People to People, a company that featured opportunities to travel and to be an ambassador in other countries around the world. There was a real sense of building relationships during that time, something that was considered very important after the Cold War . People to People really sought to build a few bridges between countries where things were still a little tense (and timid). Suzi and...

A Baptism in Portland

Image
We had the most wonderful trip to Portland, Oregon a few weeks ago. The main event was our granddaughter Gwen's baptism, but we made it into a very memorable family reunion and so much more.  Day One (October 14th): I had only been home from my trip to Germany for 2 full days when we set off for the U.S. I was excited to see even more family, so I just tried to get as much sleep as I could along the way.  We flew from Venice to London Heathrow - about 2.5 hours. This was my first time in Heathrow. We knew it was a huge airport ahead of time, so we did a little bit of research before we left home by studying a map and estimating which terminal(s) we would likely fly in and out of.  Turns out that Heathrow is kinda weird . . . There are 5 large terminals, but within those terminals, there are "sub" terminals (A, B, C). We landed in Terminal 5A, but it was a long time before we figured out which terminal we needed to fly out of (Terminal 5B). Scott guessed that it was going...

Slovenia Wellness Retreat

Image
How am I going to find the words to describe how life-changing it was to be a part of my very first Women's Wellness Retreat?? I will do my best . . . Last fall, my friend here in Vicenza - Emily Thompson - looped me in regarding a retreat she was planning for the spring. There were several things on the list of activities that I was unfamiliar with, compared to the few things I was maybe 1% familiar with. But the whole idea called to me nonetheless. First, I had to convince Scott to let me go, since the price tag was a little out of our comfort zone. Over the course of several days, we finally found a compromise which involved me giving up the opportunity to visit him in Morocco around the same time. It needed to be one or the other, and I chose the retreat.  The location was magical, remote, peaceful, and exquisitely picturesque . . .
