I don't want to give too much away, as far as my location goes, but it rhymes with "Farcelona." Then we'll be staying in "Valenciar", and then on to Zadrid. wink wink.

I think I know how to figure this out, I am not a detective, but I know something about how to figure this out.

No, don't give me clues, I can work this out, and probably laugh when I have figured this out.

Last year, my older aunt, only 8 years older than me, took a trip to Rome, Venice, Pisa

I got daily messages from her every day, telling me about the glory of her god and Jesus.

Something like this, probably. Some people simply cannot open their minds, and do the same thing for dozens of years.

Congrats to Heddi. And unlike my suspicions about some other sailors, I'd bet Mr. & Mrs. Heddi don't argue over who gets to walk on water first.

To get a chance to travel to Scotland a decade ago...and I did over pack to the point that I had five bags, one just for shoes mind you... . I had to get from Gatwick airport to Kings Cross to catch a train to Glasgow via the London Underground. I lost my ticket coming from the tubes and needed it to exit and go above ground to catch this train.

Being from LA suburbs, I'm ashamed to say I would frequently drive to my mailbox so my knowledge of public transportation was appalling.
After desperately searching through all the bags I realized I lost the flipping ticket and they wouldn't let me go through the turnstile without it.
I just sat there sprawled out over my luggage bawling my eyes out. Oh, I looked pathetic rifling through 15 pairs of underwear, (per mom's instructions in case I died).
A wonderful man in a business suit rescued me, by paying for my ticket and actually helped haul my luggage above ground in order to catch this train. I had 2 mins to spare. I wish I would of had the time to get his name so that I could of sent him the fare and a card for his kindness. He will forever be my knight that saved this "damsel in distress" and taught me the importance of practical footwear and YES, YOU CAN travel with two bags and still look fabulous. Lol! life lesson #326
