Informational post # 1


I'll get back to the trip in the next post, but just I just want to make you aware of a few items. A few people last year told me that they didn't leave comments because you had to sign-in, etc. I realized that was the pre-set option for comments, but I believe that I have changed that for this summer's blog. I think that anyone can leave comments now without signing in so feel free to tell us just how looney you actually think we are. If anyone wants to see any of the pictures in more detail, just click on them, and you can see a bigger version.

Also, I'm usually not in the business of product endorsements, but Becky did find out online about an all-natural pill that is supposed to reduce the effects of jet-lag. It's called No Jet Lag, and we picked it up before we left at REI. Jim (or anyone else traveling long-distances), I highly recommend this. It may be in my head or it may be some kind of voodoo spell, but this is the fifth time I've made the trip to Europe, and this is by far the easiest adjustment I've had to the time difference. Of course, I have to admit that I'm saying this as I'm typing at four in the morning local time. I did not feel like a zombie last night though, and we went to bed at a normal hour. I did wake up early this morning, but I slept on the plane yesterday, and the rest of the family is still sleeping. We'll see how we feel today, but I think that the magic Harry Potter pill may have actually worked.
