Goodbye Summer

The promise of autumn kept me going through the humid summer and now it is here. Beautiful warm days, the air con is off, the breeze is blowing. I love it.

So the big news - Dan and I are going to New York for Christmas! Our friend Chris Mack is going home to New Jersey and is very kindly taking us with him. I hear the Sopranos theme tune with Jingle Bells in the background...

Being geeky Social Studies teachers, we are gonna try to sneak in a rendezvous to Washington D.C to get our picture in front of the White House and JFKs final resting place. It is very surreal to be going to the Big Apple. I can't wait to see the Statue of Liberty, to eat pizza and bagels and to hear Chris's mother yell "the coaffee's ready" in the morning.

Bada bing...
