We are counting down the days - almost hours; bags are being packed and weighed and reweighed. 44# is not much when we are going to be gone for a month and when the empty suitcase is 10# to start with.
It is always hard to leave such cute little ones behind. In the time we are gone Kayla will be doing things she can't do now and we will miss 'chatting with her' and the joy of just holding her. The boys will be more independent, more like little boys. We will miss their smiles, giggles and hugs, the funny things they say. So for the time we are gone, pictures will have to keep us connected. A month will at times seem much longer.
One of the difficult things we will experience is the high humidity. We will be in very warm places with limited ac. While in Albania we will be outside much of the time.
We will get a break from the heat and high humidity while in Copenhagen. Then we go to just north of the equator. Hopefully being on an island we will get lots of breeze.
We will appreciate the dry heat when we return to AZ.
The logistics and weather aside we are looking forward to lots of fun experiences and seeing several different parts of the world. It is our hope that we can be in the midst of the people in each place and not so much tourists.
I hope to add pictures and notes as we travel along to let you know what is going on.
