It’s almost Fall Y’all! Happy September. Piper and I are off on a girls trip! We leave for Europe on Wednesday! BOSTON > LONDON > PARIS > SWITZERLAND > VENICE > ROME > HOME. Hurricane Irma just flooded our little island, but the storm missed our house, hallelujah!

Eating – We are traveling and being adventurous eaters. Piper tried duck, tofu, and bubble tea today. Tomorrow maybe she’ll try ballpark pizza?

Drinking – We are in Boston, so the dork in me is having Boston Tea Parties.

Listening – Totally loaded my phone with English Eighties music to get me in a LONDON state of mind. Echo and the Bunnymen, Morrisey, and The Cure.

Reading – A European Lonely Planet Travel Guide.

Milo – Says Hi, Bye, and Banana now.

Oli – has such a wonderful vocabulary right now. He’s going to be a clever kiddo like his big sister.

Pip – comes alive with travel. She’s a delightful travel companion. She just soaks it all in. I’m in awe watching her. She may be an excellent candidate for world schooling.

Matt – I added Matt a category this month. He’s waiting for some exciting career news. FINGERS CROSSED Y’ALL.

Watching – Hurricane Irma #irmagerd on the weather channel.

Loving – My fisheye lens again. I’m so happy I remembered to toss it into my suitcase.

Wishing – For the Hurricane season to be over already. So much destruction. I loved storm watching when I was younger, now it’s terrifying.

Thinking – about travel blogging. I could totally do this full time.

Looking Forward To – We had to postpone our Disney trip because of Irma. So we rescheduled for December.
