Today is a happy and sad day for me. I am happy for my eldest daughter, her husband and their 3 year old twins as they are leaving for their much planned adventure. They are spending 6 months in Italy. They have been saving for nearly 2 years. I am sad because although we live many miles apart here in South Africa - she is here a phone call away. They have been extremely lucky to have both their jobs held for them while they are away. I am also lucky because next month I go to Italy to see them in their "new surroundings". They fly out tonight. I wish them much love, a safe journey and a wonderful adventure. Sarah.
