The packing has begun. We leave on the 3rd for pre CLEO, so we have two guest bedrooms full of clothes, suitcases, more clothes, shoes, etc, etc. Stacking stuff, taking stuff of the stacks, moving stuff around, trying to get everything into 3 checked bags for 22+ days, plus one carry on with basics in case luggage doesn't arrive with us,........whew......lots of re-doing. It will get done at some point, duh!!!

Starting to feel real and really starting to get excited.

Looking forward to dinner on Sunday June 6 with Russ and Susan and Andrea in Rome. Should be lots of fun and a great time.
