Off Again - Turkey and Spain

Well we are off again! This time we are going away for two months, three weeks of which will be in Turkey, three weeks in Spain and a week in Paris for our 40th wedding anniversary. Friends have commented that we must be getting excited in anticipation, but the reality is there is a great deal to do before we fly out and so we are focussing on that right now. We will both give a sigh of relief when the plane finally takes off.

In the meantime Milton is trying to get better acquainted with the new iPad and all it can do - which is the main reason for this preliminary blog entry! So far it is going well (including the touch typing). We are also finalizing arrangements with our house sitter who will look after our cat Emmy and the house while we are away.

Our first stop is Singapore for about three days to break the journey and so that Milton does not spend his birthday on an all-day flight. We then fly to Frankfurt and take a train to Munich to stay with friends for a couple of days. After that we fly to Istanbul.
