Oh you know just your casual family bike ride around the neighborhood post Easter dinner.

It’s been a bit since the last update… and that’s in part because a lot and a little has happened.

A little:

no cooking

no cleaning

no Harbor walks

A lot:

I’m going to Italy for three weeks.

If I’ve learned one thing in writing this blog over the past three years, it’s that I stop writing when I’m confused and a bit stressed in life. So the past two weeks have been spent realizing that what I’ve been thinking about … is actually happening.

And since I haven’t quite figured it all out yet (that would be boring)… I don’t really have an itinerary to share. Plus for the sake of safety, I wouldn’t. (Somewhere my dad is breathing a sigh of relief)

Here’s what I know thus far:

– I will hit Venice and Florence and Rome. I want to see much more than that of course. On the list? Siena, Cinque tera, Amalfi Coast, and some hillsides in Tuscany.

– I’ll be takin the train everywhere.

– I know about 5 words in Italian

– My sister is joining me for the first week!

And most importantly …. I’ll have an amazing time.
