Travel Blog Up… Check

Well, we’re working through the to-do list of things we need to do before we leave. It’s getting really close - only 4 sleeps.

Ok, now I need to come up with a name for blog I guess - the best I can come up with is “Gelato or Bust”. (I think Gina will like that!) The story behind the name: we’ve been tracking a travel bug which is actually a coin with a dog tag attached to it for tracking. The travel bug travels from geocache to geocache. It’s moved by people called geocachers. (No idea what I am talking about? Check out geocaching.com) Some travel bugs have goals; this travel bug wants to go to Italy and get some gelato - hence the travel bug is named “Gelato or Bust”. We happen to be flying to Europe so we’re taking it with us and we’ll place it in a geocache when we get there. We won’t take it all the way to Italy though - that would be to easy for the travel bug.

    I’m still sooo confused with this geocaching stuff! It sounds like your having a fun time with it though, maybe I will free up some time to check it out!

    I am assuming you are already enjoying London. I checked the weather and it looks like it is similar to our weather here. Have a fabulous holiday! We are looking forward to hearing all about your travels.

    Hi Guys,
    Was thinking about you both and hoping that you are enjoying London. Also that your luggage arrived safely and all that jazz. Praying for some God Appointed moments for you both.
