Day 12: Travel plans

It's been just two months since we returned from our journey to Portugal and Spain, but we are itching to travel again.  Now that we are done with medical issues, we are booking tickets for our spring and summer trips.  I got tickets for Sleep No More for Feb. 20!  Evan loves the show so much that we have to experience it.  We are also set for Iceland in June.  Next week, I will book our cruise to Alaska for August.

All around our home are remembrances of past trips.  I'll photograph them on rainy days, like today, when I can't take my camera outside.  I love Ireland, partly because so much of my family emigrated from there and because it feels like home.  I want to return to tour leisurely without a crew of kids.  Years ago, I found a Belleek sugar bowl at an auction, so when we traveled to Ireland in 2003, I got a delicate creamer to complete the set.

Treasures, each with its own story.
