We had a fantastic cruise! I’ll update more in the very near future. Turns out internet was quite spendy on the ship (75 cents a minute!) and I was enjoying being completely unplugged from everyday life, so no real time updates from us. I did keep a journal so I’ll pull out some of the more interesting stories and photos over the next week or two.
For those who were worried about us being in the hurricanes, we missed them all. We came through after Gustav and before Hannah was coming through the Caribbean. We had rain in Mexico and the Panama Canal, but otherwise it was clear skies and smooth sailing with Captain Mickey and his crew.
A quick Italy update – nothing happened on the relocation stuff while we were gone, unfortunately. We found out this week that work visas are hard to get for Milan. The paper work must first be submitted by a local host manager in Italy and then it’s about 3 months for the paperwork to be approved. I’m not surprised given my personal research, but that puts us moving in December at the earliest. We’ll keep everyone posted on the dates as we know more.
Thanks Kat for sharing the first of your many adventures. As you know, I love travel and the only thing I like more than doing it myself is to read about the adventures of others!!
