Preparation

Well it is now the night before the big trip. We are packed, we hope, and ready to go. We depart home at 10:30 for an hour drive to Detroit where we head to CHicago. Here we layover for three hours then board the Iberia overnight to MADRID.

We just took the dogs for their last walk before we depart and so we are now just waiting for the adventure to begin.

Until tomorrow then the plan is to rest well... we may need it!

June 7th

It is T-minus 9 days and counting before we head to Detroit airport for a short flight to Chicago, followed by the overnight flight to MADRID, Spain.

We will spend the next 14 days in Spain. We will be on tour with our favorite tour group Trafalgar. The plan is to visit the following cities:
Madrid, Toledo, Cordoba, Granada, Costa del Sol, Gibraltar, Seville, Lisbon, Fatima, Salamanca, and back to Madrid...I am tired already but that is not all. We spend an additional 3 nights in Greece where we will drop off Chris for the next 4 weeks.

He will be attending classes in greek and latin literature and be traveling the path of St Peter as they explore some of the Greek Islands. He will get 12 college credits and a lifetime of memory.

Cathy and I will return to the USA on July 4 while Chris does not return until August 1.

All in all it should be a fantastic trip. I hope you all enjoy following along as we take another family adventure.
