    Repacking at the Airport

    November 25, 2019 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 63 °F

    We were running late this morning (yeah, big surprise) so towards the end I just shoved everything in randomly and had to reorganize stuff before we checked the bags. We are bringing 24 + 1 bottles of wine. The "+1" is actually the size of 4 bottles. My only goal is to come back with less than we broughtRead more

  • Wine disaster ...

    November 25, 2019 in the United States ⋅ 🌙 32 °F

    Our plane trip went smoothly, but when our luggage came off the carousel, the suitcase that holds the big bottle of wine was suspiciously wet. For the whole taxi ride to Doug's house, I was dreading what we'd find.Read more

  • ... averted!

    November 25, 2019 in the United States ⋅ ☁️ 32 °F

    Turns out the wetness was due to rain! The bottle arrived intact.

    We met the crowd of very lovely people and proceeded to have a delightful dinner, but maybe a bit too much wine. And we didn't even open the huge bottle!Read more

  • Packing mishap

    November 26, 2019 in the United States ⋅ ☁️ 23 °F

    I woke up with a nasty headache that I'm sure was due to the altitude. Couldn't have anything to do with all the 🍷🍷🍷

    Once I got up, I realized that while I had carefully packed toothpaste, shampoo, etc. in a Ziploc bag, I had left the plastic bag sitting at home. Good thing we had a back up single serving toothpaste. Also a good thing that there is a Walgreens just a few blocks away.Read more

  • Snow Day

    November 26, 2019 in the United States ⋅ ⛅ 23 °F

    The snowfall gently continued till early afternoon an it was about a foot all together.

    We had an amazing brunch at Richard & Linda's and then I had a really lazy day: took a nap, worked on a jigsaw puzzle and took another walk at sunsetRead more
