 Honey, we're home!

I think I may have mentioned this before, but this is the 60th time we have transitioned from one home to another since my retirement. I am still in awe that the only two things I HAVE to bring with me each time is my passport and wallet. Everything else we need is already there. Everything from underwear to our toothbrush and anything in between is awaiting us when we land. Its incredible that we can travel 6000 miles away to not only another country but to another continent and within a few hours we are all but up and running at home like we never left.

Not to say that as always, there are 8 months of maintenance, repairs and landscaping to catch up on. But in short order, we are good to go. Here we are still knee deep in the final stages of completing our pool project but within days of our arrival, cousin Michael and Em arrived from Los Angeles for a visit to see what all the fuss was about. We dug out our visitors' 'Places to visit' log and got busy.

Checking out the Monte-Carlo casino in Monaco

Earning their keep by helping to bottle our wine

Lunch in Italy

We replenished our wine stock by bottling more (much more!) and set out to visit some of our favorite meadieval villages. Cannes, Monaco and lunch in Italy are always high on the list. 


So, is the pool finished?

NO

We have had a tremendous amount of unrelenting rain since our arrival, making work difficult to impossible. As you can see above, the surround in underway but stopped because of rain. We shall overcome....
