An abundance of emotions ... What to take? What to leave? Parting from Tom for over a month ... yet it WILL go by quickly and we'll meet in Denmark. Family history to research, Castles to explore, research to enjoy ... but what will I miss at home ... Adventures to enjoy ... Finances to consider. I've been up and down over this opportunity since December when I found out I was accepted. And yet ultimately; that's just what this is an OPPORTUNITY!
At this point excitement is building with each Checklist item completed and home "responsibility" passed to another family member. I fly out in 5 days ... 20 hours later I'll arrive in Copenhagen, Denmark. How amazing to live today when the journey around the world takes so "little" time. Think of me this Sunday (5/27th), won't you (?), as I manage multiple plane transitions, a train ride "under" the water between Denmark and Sweden, and a final 10 mile trip to Lund University, Sweden. My home for the month of June.
As my reading group's readers say at the end of each non-complete story, "More to Come."
