Saying goodbye before a journey is always bittersweet. Today we spent time with Val, Greg & Monica plus my parents. Mom gave Kimi & me our birthday cards & gifts since our birthdays will be occuring during the trip. It makes the length of the trip seem all the longer when on Aug 6 you’re saying, “See you in October”!
It was a long but fun-filled day. We went canoeing with the Lyons on the Concord river, adding to our list of annual must-do events we share with them. We’re going to have to wait until October to check off the Davis Farmland MegaMaze – it only just opened for this year & we don’t have enough time to go there before the trip.
This afternoon, we joined my folks back at our house to swim & then eat a lot of yummy Indian food & pizza – two great tastes that don’t exactly go together, but don’t start fights in your tummy, either.
Monica is sleeping over & gets reunited with Val at voice lessons tomorrow. Then it’s really, really goodbye - until our next phone chat/email! Gotta love technology!!
