Today is the day our journey begins. It's 4:45am and we're in pain from lack of sleep. Yet we are quite excited. Last night while trying to sleep we felt like children who couldn't catch a wink on Christmas Eve because they knew what was coming the next morning.
We figured it would be a good idea to stay awake really late last night so that we would be able to sleep on our 2nd leg of the trip, from Philly to Milan. We will leave Philly at 4:30pm and land in Milan at 6:30am tomorrow morning. Yet it will be 9:30pm Wednesday night our time. So sleep is indeed needed on the flight.
Right now we're not liking that strategy that much as we miss our sleep and the two of us are rather groggy from a mere 3 hours of shuteye. But hopefully our plan will pay off later today.
As for now, we're off to the airport.

Grandma and I are reminiscing about our trips to Europe - the flight, sleeping on the plane, and the airline trying to trick you into thinking it's nightime -- when it's not! It's about 11a.m. here -- we figure you've been traveling today on your way to Venice, right? We figure you're on your way - if not already there - for dinner. Hope you enjoy real Italian cuisine in Italy! Not too much wine, guys (from grandma haha) Looking forward to hearing from you. Love you.
