Now, with Alex in Japan and the UK, I'm guessing most of our travels will be to those two places.<br />That made me try to internalize every part of your post today. You describe everything perfectly. It would be impossible for me to comment on each thing that I loved so much so I'll just tell you how very much I enjoyed it and learning about your family and Sr. P's home. I do hope you'll write more.<br />Blessings,<br />BetsyBetsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00807691752817225336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6768477638418453764.post-40599271463024233172020-10-30T16:19:37.820+01:002020-10-30T16:19:37.820+01:00Thank you for calling in.
