travel count down week 5

Five weeks? Really? What happened to week 6? Anyway, today is Tuesday, and it is 34 more sleeps until we leave. I'm still working on Hebrew and Italian every evening. My hubby has read a book about archaeology of Bible lands, and is rereading James Mitchener's The Source. We have to make sure we have enough "meds" to last the six weeks we'll be away. The recent "Christmas Day" foiled attempt to blow up a plane has caused lots of increased rules and regulations about what may and may not go on the plane as carry-on. If they make it any more stringent, they'll have to ban passengers!
