Commence Phase II
My mom and Lolo are now on a plane heading back to the Northwest while Tommy and I have our last night in England. I just want to take a moment and reflect on what a wonderful first phase of the trip it was. I got to see parts of the world I’ve always wanted to see, travel with my mom and sister, and stay so busy I was able to completely disconnect from work which was the whole point of this crazy adventure.
I loved traveling with my mom and sister. We ate so much amazing food, drank great beers, saw great sights, laughed, and avoided any catastrophic meltdowns. And when hypoglycemia runs strong in your family this is no small feat.
I also want to acknowledge how amazing my mother is. She went completely out of her comfort zone for this trip. Challenging and pushing herself to make the most out of it and finally visit a country she has always wanted to explore. She pushed on with a bad knee, was up for anything, and braved the loud bars for us girls.
Isn’t she the cutest?? She inspires me every day and I am so happy we were able to make this trip happen.
Here’s to making another one happen soon! Thanks for the memories mommy and Lolo!
Up next is contenental Europe, some major bucket list items for Tommy and I, and some solo travel for me. Alarm is set for 4:45am to catch the train to Paris!!
