19 days until we fly to Sicily/ Rome.

We are ready. I think.

Looking forward to trying all the delicious foods that have been recommended on this board (ricci!), and to experiencing Easter week on the island. And to seeing Siracusa, Noto, Agrigento, Etna. And to taking my kids to see the Colosseum.

It's my second time to Sicily, though my first trip was nearly 20 years ago (oy, it's hard getting older). I lived in Rome in college, so that always feels a bit like going home.

Eeek...8 weeks from today until we leave for Paris/Rome.

The only thing better than the actual trip is the anticipation of the actual trip!

14 days and 9 hours til I get to the airport for my Swiss trip! Woohoo!!! I desperately needed this break.

And I'm 47 days away from my Panama Cruise with my parents.

2 weeks until we go to New York City! I've only changed planes in the Big Apple. Finally, I can taste this pizza every single New Yorker I've ever met has gone on about

September 2008, a little over 6 months away!

Are you ready (I know we are all READY but are you prepared?)

not yet! its too far from now. though I have planning my itinerary and reasearching stuff for months!!!

Is this a first time, second time, and so on?

What are you most looking forward to doing or seeing?

everything! eating, wine, hiking the amalfi coast, the chair lift up mount salero, pompeii, the sistene chapel.... I could go on and on!

10 days until Peru's sacred valley. I'm really worried I might have to cancel this though, given the strikes don't seem to be ending. Any insights?

Judy -- That's so funny you said that. My mom, who leaves with me in 7-1/2 weeks for Paris/Rome was just insisting today that I take zinc and echinacea a week before we leave to avoid being sick during our trip.

Moms are so good at looking after us!

Just two months and we are off to Barcelona. Then train to Carcassone for a night and next day rent car to drive to Albi and the Dordogne. From Sarlat area we will drive to St. Emilion for a short stay on a vineyard. Then, last, but most defintely not the least part of our trip, will be a week in Paris. We will take the TGV from Libourne.
