I haven’t even written about the last flight and we are planning the next exciting one: Rome! As in Italy, not Indiana. We’re planning to fly there, meet my mother (who is visiting friends), take her to Mannheim and then fly home. My mother is very impressed at the taxi service she’s being offered … which means something is sure to go wrong.

I’ve never been to Rome! I suspect their air space will be horrifically busy – I wonder if I’ll have the same problems understanding them as I do the French? Scary!
I hope my mother doesn’t pack to much luggage – I want to go grocery shopping while we are there: vinegar, porcini, pasta, pancetta, olives, wine!

Can you tell I’m a bit excited? :)
