What is the point?

Welcome.   In years past, I have blogged some of our family travels.  I have loved looking back on our adventures in this way as each blog post was like a diary, not just of where we went and what we did, but how we felt.  

Well, now it's just he and I.  And I thought I'd like to record our travels in this way.  Mostly for me, but feel free to follow along if it suits you!  I don't know how it's gonna turn out.  We never do, really.   

I actually love not knowing.  It's one of my favourite parts of being human.  

We leave today for Rome.  Five days in Rome, then to Bari, way down south.  With a roughed out itinerary in place and a rental car, we'll explore Puglia, Basilicata and Calabria along the Ionian coast - from the heel to the toe.  So what is the point?  It's right there, right by Sicily.  That's the point.  We're going there.

 We've been away a couple of times in recent years since our kids have grown...but holidays, really, getaways. Not adventures. Adventures were something we did with kids. In fact, everything is an adventure with kids. Like cooking dinner for example.  And using the bathroom alone. Oh, the adventure. Or praying the rosary. I could go on but I think you get the picture. It’s a dangerous business going out your door. Or going outside your comfort zone. Kudos to parents everywhere. So what will an adventure without children like? Honestly, I don’t think anything will match the exhausting and awesome years of raising a family. This new adventure has the quality of not knowing and that is exciting, but with all the knowing of what we have back home - all the people full of life and love. That’s the real adventure. But all those years reading history together made me want to go meet it in person. Off we go then.
