Rome, James!

We all know I'm happiest when I have a trip planned, especially if I'll need my passport!  We are likely headed to Africa later next year for our longer 2 week trip - but we've just booked a short week in Rome in January!   Pompeii has long been on my list of places to see, and it's a day trip from Rome.  Our B&B is in the city center and we plan on walking A LOT and seeing all of the historical buildings - coleseum, pantheon, etc.  We'll also hop on a few trains for some day trips out of the city - Tivoli, Florence, and maybe other historical sites closeby. 

Needless to say, I'm looking forward to it.  With this being Tom's busiest time of the year, he's literally been working 7 days a week, and many, many hours a day.  So, this will be great timing for him to relax and for us to spend some time together after the holiday rush.

I'm also VERY excited to report that I have silver medallion status on Delta next year - first time ever.  All those trips home and abroad paid off - when combined with our AmEx points.  Score.  Hopefully it'll get us/me a few upgrades when travelling this year!


Merry Christmas everyone!  We will be headed up to the slopes for the day, then over to a friends' house for the evening

Here's hoping you find yourself surrounded by family and friends!
