Vacation Break

Well, it's time to finish packing for our upcoming vacation. We've been looking at the optional excursions with our tour (more $$). I tend to like the scenic ones as opposed to all the historical sites, how about you? It looks like early 7 am departure-type mornings, eeps. As we are going with 2 other families it will be interesting to see what optionals they choose, if any. The days are busy with K at summer school and with getting L ready for university. We received the tuition statement as soon as she registered for courses! The challenge is to squeeze some regular exercise into my days. I should be able to start posting again in early August! Bye for now.

Oh, here's a recipe for Grill-Roasted Clam Linguine that I found. It says 'Clams cooked in the shell pop open on the grill, just like they do when steamed. And there's a bonus for the cook: No big, heavy pot is needed.' I never knew you could grill clams.

And here's a funny video where this 'comedian owns heckler, wins back crowd'.

Hey Christine, Hope your vacation is fabulous. I'm a scenic tour fan myself. But I'm not a fan of 7am anythings on vacation! Hope you have a blast! I'll be watching to hear all about it.
Cheers,
jj

Have a terrific time, Christine. We do like both the scenic and historical places. We tend to mix up our vacation stops.

Sorry about that. My fingers got a bit jumpy and I hit the publish key twice and got my comment printed out twice. Sheesh!
