I have been to Dublin before, but it was in the spring so I can't wait to see it all Christmasy. I'm hearing amazing things about Edinburgh and am getting more and more sad that we only have 1 day there. When I was in London for new years last year I only got to see the main sights for a second, so I can't wait to have some more time there. Most excited for "chrissie" (apparently that's how Lucy's mum is referring to Christmas) and to meet Big Lu's family. I've always wanted to go to Venice and be among 3 Sheets....if I pull that off, I might become my brothers hero. Bologna is supposed to be a wonderful city and I'm so happy that our little Italian family will be ringing in the new year together! So many pictures and stories to be posted upon my return..hopefully I won't be lazy and wait weeeeeeeeks!
