Five weeks today!!!!!

So we are now in official countdown mode.

I have another 3 weeks of official duties with Planet Cake to complete, which is making me quite sad to think about. I've had such a brilliant time working there.

We are starting to sort out all the little things now. We have our suitcases bought, most of our travel clothes sorted out, and now we just need to organise a couple of small things like international drivers licences and a couple of other small matters.

This is a photo of my Papa and his mother, my Nonna. I am named after her, but unfortunately, she passed away when I was very young.

Last time David, D'arcy and I visited Sicily, we went and visited her grave and took her some bright pink gerberas, chosen by D'arcy of course.

I'm looking forward to meeting some of my Papa's cousins this time around, it should be interesting. They don't really speak English, and I don't really speak Italian ;)
