our first guests - reality check

So, at least the start of this "trip of a lifetime" isn't exactly working out as we planned. Mom, Dad, Brooks and I have all had a nasty stomach virus for the last couple of days, and we've had to postpone our departure for Italy. We're not heading out until we're all mostly well and fairly certain that Sissy and Eric are in the clear - which I hope will be later this weekend. Thankfully, Eric and Sissy are both still feeling pretty good at this point, but I didn't even see my dad yesterday, as I don't think he left his hotel room. I'm glad they are here, either way, and I'm looking forward to all of us feeling better and being back on our feet soon.
