Thanksgiving Plans

I am so excited. I just planned and booked our first real family trip in Europe. We are going to Rome for Thanksgiving!! We will leave Wednesday before Thanksgiving and come home Sunday evening. The plane tickets were really cheap (300 dollars for the WHOLE family). I found an awesome apartment a few blocks from the Colosseum to rent while we are there as well. We plan on sightseeing around the area and enjoy the break. This will be my second trip to Italy, but the family's first. I cannot wait to treat everyone to real Gelato and some amazing Italian food.

We have a few other places we want to go to in the next year other than the typical places around here. In April during the kids' spring break we want to go to Dublin, Ireland. We thought about that for Thanksgiving but I am assuming it might be a bit too chilly that time of year. So much to do there and see as well.
