Testing my technology skills,

Hello! Hello! Is anybody out there? Is there anybody home?  
   One week from today we board a plane with the three boys and leave behind our hectic life at home.  This is our second time camping or I should say glamping through Europe. ( we will never have to sleep on the ground) Our basic itinerary is to fly in the Amsterdam, then to Brugge , Luxembourg, Germany,Austria,Croatia,Slovenia,and then  Italy for three weeks. Last but not least we fly to Stockholm to spend some time with some dear friends.
   Packing..... Last time I had all good intentions of packing light. I instead had separation anxiety with my things and bought the hugest, dumbest suitcase I could find at Ross. Of course it was all blinged out like a Barbie doll special and weighed about 100 lbs. the wheel broke in london( our first stop) I sadly watched it roll down the cobblestone rd and knew at that moment I blew it. I was destined to carry these massive bags the rest of the trip, with all the Europeans giggling at me. The look on their faces gave me away, instantly, Look at that American woman with all her STUFF. This time I intended on sticking to one carry on bag, couldn't quit go that far, I am a girl after all. I have  one moderate bag which weighs in about 42 pounds. Not bad. Not bAd.
