We've been home nearly 4 months now. Life is back to normal, and as we suspected, our trip of a lifetime seems like a faraway dream. I'm ashamed to say that I haven't ordered a single picture of this adventure. We haven't even shared our pictures with our family or closest friends! It's so overwhelming to get them organized into a reasonable amount! But I have a quiet afternoon, and it's raining outside, so what better time, right? Meanwhile, always in the back of my mind I am trying to figure out how we can GO again. Between the falling dollar and rising gas prices, it just isn't going to happen for some time. I long for the quiet Venice mornings though, or the bells ringing across the Tuscan Hills.
This day spent in Lucca and Pisa was one of our best and most memorable days. We all loved riding bikes around the wall in Lucca. In fact, when we returned home, C's birthday present was a bike seat, so we can ride as a family! We have done it a few times this summer, which has been really fun. The kids remember playing on the lawn near the Leaning Tower of Pisa too. It's not something easily forgotten!
Hope you Enjoy!!

Such a neat trip you all had! I know what you mean about getting pictures organized. It is so overwhelming! We took tons in Hawaii and we haven't shared any with other family or friends either. The memories are still there, but July seems like so long ago now I can't imagine how long ago March/April seem for you. Good luck getting all the pics sorted out. At least you have the blog to refer back to. What a trip of a lifetime!
Wanderlust. It's difficult, I know. We traveled in Europe for a month last summer and all I think about is how to do it again. My photos are my computer screensaver, so even though I don't know if I'll ever get them organized, at least I get to see them once in awhile. Good luck.
