Life on the Home Front

Time fly by

Spread the love


Well it birthday number 2. We will be heading over to Europe to see our Granddaughter. This time we are not going to Russia but may take a side trip to Italy .
We have a LOT more connections this time so will see what this produces .
The wife wanted to see the play beautiful so we are stopping in NY. For 4 days on the way there.That will make jet lag better to deal with .
Hope to have some good posts to read when get back .
Good Rolling. 🙂 🙂

Trip over with . Got sick one day before coming back so plane ride did not help . Have not even gone out to table yet .
Boy Paris we got their pent house suite . 😮 The ceiling was about 5ft.7 . It had a 7 ft long tub that you stand up in at least 2 ft. long other wise we felt like the room was made for midgets .My wife must have hit her head 20 or more times .When had to take the elevator to the 4 th floor then walk up to see a door that said Danger and a hole bunch of french . To the right was our door to our room .Which if you were 6 ft. tall you would have to duck to get in . Lucky for both of us we are short .
Got the hop on hop off bus for 2 days so saw a lot of Paris .
So the grad daughter talks Russian ,French , Italian , and English .She is now 3 and getting big .Just LOVE THE HECK OUT OF HER .

We could not get refund from Southwest but did get credit till 2022 . on tickets that were cancelled are to get a refund since they have no idea when they will start flying again .

Sure do miss the Grd kids .
