Quite the adventure, Flying is very stressful, for sure, but freezing cold is

inhumane. Looking forward to hearing more about your travels. Welcome Back. Hope you feel better soon. Love and Peace to you both.

So. What I want to know is

did you sniff the cotton ball regularly while traveling?

Unfortunately, we did not. It had a rather strong fragrance that seeped out of the bag and we felt it would be off putting to our neighbors on the plane. So, maybe that's why I got a cold!

Another stellar post. I'm old and forgetful, so I thought you had already moved to Portugal! Surprise! You're back...in NC??

Love the photos and translations of how cool it is there in Tavira. A truly lovely place. I do wonder if Trump's tentacles have reached there. He has certainly infected the USA. Brave on...!

Thanks, Jon. We're sorting out all the stuff we have to get done to move. It's complicated! Funny, everyone we met -- from Uber drivers to expats -- all mentioned Trump within the first five minutes. Something to the effect of, "How about that Trump? " Our country has lost respect around the world.
