So exactly two weeks to go, and I'm starting to wonder what I am doing! Anyone know? I feel like someone is living my life for me and making all this happen around me. I starting to see that I have to be careful about the children and the fact that they have no concept around how long we will be gone for or when they will see their mates again. They have no ideas what to expect or what this involves, but then neither do I. I need to Spend some time in the next week showing them a bit about the plan and putting their minds at rest I think. I don't think big goodbyes are the way to go! We are off to a caravan site up north next week end for my first long run with the caravan in the new car. This could go one of two ways...I will let you know how it goes. The idea is to take it for a weekend here in the uk and figure out things that I have forgotten about or need to sort before next week. Then it's packing up and preparing for the ferry crossing. The next time you here from me will be in Spain. First stop at a campsite somewhere near the port of Santander. Lets hope it goes well.
