Thursday

Welcome to Yarn-trail, my new blog. I've created this blog just in time for our Big Family Trip to Europe due to begin in a couple of weeks. I am hoping it will be a great record for us of our adventure and allow family and friends to keep track us. After that? Who knows. There might also be a little yarn creeping into the yarning -which, for those of you unfamiliar with the term is the local Aboriginal lingo for having a chat.

So with two weeks to go we are pretty well prepared at this stage - tickets, check, accommodation, check, gear, check. Only the last minute things to sort out. Like which knitting project to take. And where the best yarn shops are in Rome and Paris. Important stuff. I am determined to make this trip the lightest ever. No more overstuffed suitcases to lug in and out of trains and buses. Can I break the habits of a lifetime? Watch this space.

The children seem rather underwhelmed by the trip at this stage. 4 year old E is rather anxious about it all. I hope she will be OK and will keep up with the rest of us.
