What a whirl wind life has been. We took a Mediterranean cruise and were on a Costa ship when the other ship tipped over. What a tragedy. Our prayers are with the people and families from that ship.

Our trip was lovely, Milan Italy, Olympia Greece, Ashdod & Haifa Israel, Izmir Turkey, Athens Greece, Rome Italy and back to Milan. We saw so many beautiful sites, a good trip, but even better to be back home.

We came home to days of rain that has flooded homes in our area. Our daughter did a great job of tending to things. So far we are okay. There is a lake of water to the north of us. The rains turned to snow earlier today, and have stopped for now.

I feel our lives were blessed.

Terri (twee) thank you for posting - it had to be like heaven in some of those places - such a different and diverse coulture. Can't wait to see some of the wonderful pictures that you must have taken. I was rather relieved to hear that you were not on the other Costa ship. Such a tragedy.

Yes, we had lots of rain that turned to snow and I am glad it has stopped - even though we need the moisture - so happy to hear you are not flooded.

We will wait for an update on photo's - so I hope you have some.
