Well, guess what?! We’re pregnant! Jamie is 3 months along now. The due date is October 30th!

It’s our last day on vacation. Tomorrow we have to leave. Sad.  This morning started with a bit of a late start. Nashon enjoys his sleep.  After breakfast at the hotel, we started on our long walk across town.  The weather cooperated quite nicely. The day started with a light rain but by the time […]

Woohoo, a day on the town in Rome, AND we had nice weather!.  The Vatican is our first stop today.   A nice long walk through town, stopping at Trevi Fountain, ended at St Peters Basilica.  We joined a tour for the Sistine Chapel because the tours line was much quicker than the general admission line.  […]

Today was our last morning in Florence, and the first day we’re out of our room by 8am.  We had breakfast and caught the first train to Pisa.  After winding our way through the city, we arrived at the Duomo and Tower of Pisa.  Jamie was quite disappointed, as the Tower was not nearly as […]

Today was a wet and yucky day in Florence.  We had very little on our “to do” plate, so decided to try and sleep in a bit.  Instead, we were woken up by the herd of elephants that ran up the stairs past our door to the breakfast room; one person even tried to open […]

Today started with a bit of a late start after a visit to the tourist stop at the train station to talk about our trip to Pisa and Rome on Wednesday.  Then we got to the activities for the day.  We walked to one corner of the city to see San Marco Cathedral.  This, like […]

Compared to Deidesheim this place is a zoo. We were up and out of the hotel about 10am and the streets were filling quickly. So far so good! Today was our first full day in Florence, Italy.  In our exploration of the city, we learned a few things: Compared to small town Germany, Florence is […]

Today has been a most uneventful day.  We woke up to the most rain we’d seen since arriving in Germany, and “enjoyed” the walk in the rain to the train station; we were on trains the entire day.  We caught the first train in Deidesheim at 8:30am, then Neustadt, to Karlsruhe.  Then a long train […]

Our plans for today involved getting up, starting the laundry (we packed for only 7 days knowing we’d have a washer here at the time share), and get on a train as soon as possible to go see the castle in Mannheim. However, it turns out that the washer is smarter than the American’s!!! Without […]
