It's only been a few days since we've returned from Crete and it's still fresh on my mind. The island was so lovely, the people so warm, the food so good and the sun so hot! I've been raving to all my friends here in Naples telling them they must go- and soon.
I know I promised a summary of our trip, but here's the deal. We did nothing. Nothing. Our entire trip was spent in the pool, or playing Uno, or going out to eat at yummy seaside restaurants, or a little shopping or just plain relaxing. Well, except for Paul who actually had to work 2.5 days but someone has to keep us in this lifestyle, right?
The one thing we did do was take the boys on a snorkeling tour. We went on a 2 hour cruise around some islands off the coast and then stopped at one to play. You should have seen William! This child will not swim in the "big" pool - WILL NOT!!! But the bouyant little guy snorkeled around these rocks swimming and floating and having the time of his life. And he wasn't even wearing a life jacket (both parents within 1ft). Lewis loved it too and was really good at the snorkelling but, being Lewis, he decided to wear his lifejacket.
Oh, and Mom, you really should have come to Crete with us.
Dad, you reading this yet?
Paul is currently in Turkey on another business trip so when he gets back and checks his work email I hope we'll have some new information on our future. There are lots of things floating around - trying to work the timing of everyone moving into and out of jobs, training, packing, moving, etc. - it all just needs to start hitting the calendar and giving us something concrete. We'll keep you up to date.
So, instead of a detailed summary, here are some photos. Enjoy. (Note: I wanted to add more photos but it's taking a LONG time. I'll try to add more later, or there's a few more on my Facebook page)
