After a heated and tearful conversation with Little Al explaining why he couldn’t come with us, we decided to take our beautiful daughter instead on our European Vacation. He still doesn’t get the thing about crossing a “bunch of water”, and plenty of “I guess your stupid daughter means more to you than me” punctuated the conversation.
Be that as it may, we are headed back to Europe with the main event The Open (British Open to you Yankees) and side trips to Portugal, Spain and the Netherlands. Our sweet daughter Brett, taking notes and direction from her brilliant father, has worked out a plan to work at her company locations overseas to keep those vacation days to a minimum. She truly loves traveling with the retired folk but has not yet figured out how to make it work financially.
We are currently at Dulles in DC waiting on her to pick us up so we can waste a day waiting for our 10pm flight…hoping we don’t become a cancelled flight statistic.
More to come.
Looking forward to a lot of personal time with my girls.
