Countdown to the Cruise!

I am having a fantastic day! Chris got back yesterday afternoon from Romania, and we leave for Istanbul on Thursday!

While Chris is at work today, I'm trying to do things I've put off for a long time (such as our taxes, for one).

We're getting super excited for the trip. We will be in Istanbul for three days, then off to Ephesus; Mykonos, Santorini, Iraklion, Corfu, and Olympia in Greece; and two days in Egypt (Alexandria and Cairo). We end in Athens, where we are staying for three days.

It's truly a trip of a lifetime, and we feel so blessed to get to go. We feel like we haven't been able to spend much time together, even since Chris got back from Afghanistan with all of his trips for work. Now it looks like he'll be going back there a little unexpectedly, and soon, in May. So, our trip serves two purposes - hello and goodbye!

I guess this is the military life, right?

That really stinks that Chris has to leave again, and so soon. I am putting you on babysitting probation until after he's gone.
