I am very excited to get on our way, but in reality, though we will leave our house at 9:45 this morning...Italy is eighteen hours away!
We leave Palm Springs and fly to SFO. (Farther west than when we started)
Then we fly to Amsterdam, arriving at 10:30 AM Saturday.
Finally at 12:30PM, (Saturday), we leave Amsterdam for Rome, arriving at 4:00 PM.
My big bag of clothes weighed in at 49.5. The "cooking bag" is 30 lb. We're off!
Next blog will be coming from ROMA! Ciao for now!

I kept watching for your final blog entry before you left.
I wish you safe and on-time flights and a wonderful time in Rome and Montisi.
And keep blogging!

You certainly have a long way to go to get to Italy, but I know it will be worth it. I hope you and Brad have a wonderful time, Palma!

I'm typing this as you and Brad are peacefully sleeping 12,000 feet in the air.
Anxiously waiting for your first post from terra firma.
