Our first challenge....

After chatting with our daughter last night, and another email from her this morning, we are challenged to reduce our luggage by one checked bag (we have 3) and one carry on (also 3 right now). It seems that although we were way below the US standards of 2 checked bags of up to 70 pounds EACH, the requirements there are much stricter, and they only allow for one checked bag each, and only one carry on each, and not to exceed about 40 lbs.

So, again, we will unpack, repack, and see what we can come up with.

Mark thinks that he'd rather just pay for the additional weight/bags, but the kids seem unsure if they would even allow for it....so this will take some discernment on our part!

OH, and we woke up to about 3 inches of snow on the ground here....SURPRISE!! It wasn't even in the forecast!! OH well...it's one way to make sure that I stay inside today to get this stuff packed up! sigh....
