Side trip to Italy

This trip has been in the making for 2 years. It was originally planned for September 2024 but was postponed to this September. After a long wait, we’re finally on our way to Italy, joining my brother Matthew and his wife Margie for a 4 week extravaganza!!

As I’ve done on previous trips, I’ll be continuing my blog, sharing photos and our adventures. Right now we’re at the Toronto Pearson Airport waiting for our 9:40pm flight direct to Rome. We arrive in Rome at 12:30pm Italy time! Stay tuned for much more once we reach the other side of the pond (without a boat!!)

We did a fun visit to the CNE (Canadian National Exhibition in Toronto). Caroline and Evelyn came along for the fun.
Not the 2 ft long hotdog but a close 2nd coming in at 1 ft.
Sun setting through the old Horticulture building.
We had a few sewing jobs for the boat. Mark is working on a holder for our new Caribbean courtesy flags.
Getting into the spirit!!

  1. Bon voyage you two (four?). Looking forward to your foodie and winey reports as you make your way around Bel Paese. Let us know if you find any good Italian joints around there. Cheers
