Stress Levels Rising

Don't you just love those last few hours prior to departure?

Running around like a headless chook, trying to tie down those last minute loose ends. I reckon my blood pressure must be 180/120 currently. Sally's is even higher, watching me panic. I've repacked my pack 6 times in the last hour. 

Has anyone seen my passport?

Good news: we've already reached $1000 in our donations before we leave Australia. 

Exciting news: Penny is staying on and studying in Rome for a month after we finish. 

Here we are enjoying a healthy meal prior to leaving.
