I'm all packed...Now What?!?!

Not really a question, more of a sigh of relief, a "Holy Crap, I can't believe I'm leaving Wednesday".

I've been freshening up my tan since last week, got my hair colored over the weekend, packed last night, and I'm getting my nails done tonight.

We leave out of Tampa on Weds, through PHL and onto Rome.

Phew. Bring on the Vino, Limoncello and Gelato, I'm ready!

Breathe deeply, smile, and practice saying "I am so happy to be here!" in Italian.

Buon Viaggio,

Oh those two days before a big trip are just killer... I usually pass the time obsession about something (usually what I have packed -LOL)!.

Safe travels!

This is the time when I like to have busy work to do. Clean the fridge or have a friend over for dinner.
Have a wonderful trip.

Pantelia, usually when I am ahead in packing for a trip I clean the house, pay bills, water plants, clean out fridge - stuff like that. But, I think relaxing and listening to a little Italian music would be just fine!

Have a fabulous trip!

<b>Buon Viaggio!</b>

Please enjoy yourself, and savor every moment. And of course, give us a nice trip report when you return!

(Never too early to break out the vino...)

Nothing like a little last minute 8th grade project to help me pass my time! Never mind that I have two of them in 8th grade!

I think I'll be a nice mom and take the kids out to dinner tomorrow night...especially since I'm not taking them with me to Italy!

Betsy, I'd be happy to help you pack. I've already helped 3 of the other 5 that are going on this trip with me!

Off to enjoy my second glass of &quot;I'd better get used to drinking this stuff&quot; vino!

Happy travels all...be on the lookout for the trip report!
