I am going to talk about something different in this journal...not medical appointments, scans or tests. I wanted to share with you about our great adventure. I'll post this in a few blogs because...well, we got to do so many things, I just need to spread it out a little.
A retired couple, who are friends of ours, called Tom in March and told him that they wanted to give us a gift...a trip to Europe! We could NOT believe it! They said they wanted to just bless us with this trip. WOW...we, of course, were shocked...but in a very good way! What a surprise!
SO...we quickly planned a trip to Europe and left in the last part of May and early June (2 weeks). We decided to focus on Switzerland and France, seeing as much as we could see in that time! What a wonderful trip we had! So many experiences and sights to take in. Really, the trip was an extraordinary adventure for both of us. We agreed that it was the best trip we had ever been on in our lives. Our friends' generosity was truly a gift from God.
Okay...so here are some of the photos. Hope you enjoy them!
The hills are alive...ahhhhhh
