The Wonderful World of Wendy


Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming - WOW - what a ride!!

The Last Supper

It is 8 PM and we are at an internet cafe two blocks from our hotel. The laptop at the front desk was acting up and I wanted to get today's highlights posted before departing Rome.

We will be heading to supper in a few minutes, then showering and packing. We'll sleep a few short hours before our taxi arrives at 5:15 AM to take us to the airport. Our flight departs here at 7:50 AM, or 10:50 PM on Monday night in Seattle. We should land in SeaTac at 3:40 PM Tuesday.

I've really enjoyed this trip, so much more than France in 2000. My medication is mostly working for me so I am able to get sleep and not have too much back pain. And I have to thank Sophia and her joining our family for getting me into shape to be able to handle the walking we've done on this trip.

I am really looking forward to being home, tho, since I miss my little baby. I carried a framed holiday photo with me, and it's been next to my bed in all of our hotels. I think about her a lot, especially when I see other dogs out for walks with their people. So I am not sad about leaving Italy, since I have so much to look forward to when I walk in the front door of my house. She will be so happy to see me, you may not understand what it's like to have someone be SO happy to see you, gone for five minutes, or 12 days.

So I expect this will be my last post before getting home. Wish us safe journey, and catch you on the other side of the world!

Arrivederci!

Wendy
