I've been 'off-line' for alittle over a week and am so glad I am finally able to get 'on' today to say 'Tootles', and have a wonderful trip!

Bye, bye STW--have a super, terrific time and don't miss me too much! And what do you mean not posting on FFRR? They got internet in them thar parts of the world, ya know!

Thanks OSB -- glad you are able to make it back online!

OWJ, bye bye to you too! :D

This pre-trip evening was perfect. We celebrated our son's birthday, cooked a nice meal (to hopefully hold the youngest one over until we return), and tried out our new camera!

Still haven't finished packing, but what the heck, LOL. :D

LOL! The good part about not finishing packing...you can toss in whatever in the morning and if it not what you need, it is an excuse to go shopping:)

Last week we were at the coast and I did a terrible packing job. For some reason I tossed in almost all dressy clothes. What was I thinking????

Wishing you and your DH a beautiful time in London and Portugal STW!!!
What you haven't packed you can buy there, right? Your travel outfit sounds perfect btw. Have a safe and comfy airflight and enjoy every precious moment..you will be in my thoughts.

<font color="green">Have a great trip, STW! We'll miss you, but we'll really be looking forward to the trip report.</font>:)

<font color="red">Snowrooster, I hope you have a blast on your N.O. anniversary trip. Prepare for heat and rain--it's been hot as h*ll around here, but the afternoon showers cool it off awhile. </font>;-)

<font color="chocolate">mms, you have a great trip to Oregan, too! (I just had to use brown . . . seems appropriate since your name puts me in mind of M &amp; Ms!:-d)</font>

If I'm not too late...

STW - Have a marvelous, relaxing, and fun-filled trip. Safe travels and we all look forward to hearing all about your journey upon your return! :-)

Morning!

So sweet, LoveItaly! Thank you.

BayouGal, you MUST teach me &quot;colors&quot; when I return! :D

Hi Fun4all!! Thanks for your good wishes -- No, it's not too late. I'm putting out some little travel fires this morning. BTW, I just want to say that I have been reading bits of your trip report. What a great trip with your family!! Thanks for sharing it will us. :)

I must say I am envious!! Have a safe and wonderful trip!!!

stw, I know you were only kidding when you said you aren't going to wear your pink leather pants. So remember what we learned from muffin: After putting on your pink leather pants, apply some baby powder between your thighs. This will keep your pants from squeaking when you walk.

Have a great trip!!

Ah, you know me all too well, P_M! The powder is all packed! :D

I hope by now you're packed! :D

Have a fantastic trip!

Thanks Caph! :)

Yes, I'm <i>finally</i> packed!! :-d I threw in a duffle bag for the trip home because there is little room for anything else, lol. I would definitely flunk janis' packing class! I figured we'll have our nephew along to help -- he's a strong boy, lol. :D

It will be my <font color="pink"> PLEASURE</font>, STW! Have a wonderful time!

STW--Always gotta have an extra bag tucked away;) When we went to Portugal, I bought way too much stuff and even with the extra suitcase, ran out of room. Hairdryer, etc all got tossed...anything that was cheap and replaceable, lol! Amazing how priorities change after shopping on vacation:D

You bettcha, mms!! :-d

1 hour 15 minutes until the car comes....and still no husband!!!:-o

Husband...who needs a husband!:D

Well, it's time folks!!! I'm excited! :)

Hate goodbyes, so I'll just say...

See ya later.....



Alligator! :D


Be good!

Hey everyone!! We´re having a great time in Portugal! My biggest worry is trying to figure out this European keyboard, LOL!

Oh, and btw, I packed too many clothes! :D

Hi STW!!

Waving......
