Am I Really Getting Out of the Bubble?

Hey All,

So I leave for Rome on Friday, and arrive bright and early Saturday morning. I'm currently in the state of being excited and terrified, but I am strangely comfortable with whatever my future holds. I am so ready to actually get out and do something ... aka, get out of the Bubble that has been my life and see the world!

When I arrive I will let you all know the best ways to get a hold of me and when (I'll be six hours ahead). I'll be in touch.

-Mark Twain

p.s. How good is God that I actually get to go on this trip?

    Kaitlin,
    When you know you'll be around Florence, please let me know. I have a friend who has a vineyard in Greve-in-Chianti who would certainly love to meet and host you.
    Travel safely.

    I am so excited for you and nervous at the same time. It's an amazing opportunity you have before you.
    Be safe.
    Your Dad.

    Kait I'm praying for you. In the tabs. What could possibly go wrong, right? Pope just told me you're on the plane so be careful and I miss you already. I was so happy to be able to see you last night! Please write in this a lot, I need my daily dose of Kaitskers.

    Holy Smokes, what a sign. Tom Petty is on the radio right now. God really is great.

    Kait, Sorry I missed seeing you again before you left this morning. Hope the flight carries you safely to Rome...actually "carried". Be happy as you soak it all in. You're LIVING life, yay! And yes, God indeed is very good. Love, Susan

    Hi Kaitlin:

    Go forth an conquer! Carpe Diem! Girlpower!
    Don't fiddle while Rome Burns! Be like Cesaer!

    Are you on the foot (Italy) or the Boot (Sicily)?
