Leaving on a jet plane....

The boys left today for their European Odyssey... although they have driven me mad the last week, I miss them already.

Their bus to Gatwick for their Amsterdam flight left at 11.15am, at 10am they not only hadn't packed, but hadn't actually bought their rucksacks! Not my way of preparing for a trip.....  I dropped them off near the bus station and took a sneaky picture as they set off.

They have reluctantly agreed to send me a short text daily.  Tonight I got a single word 'Alive'. Well, I guess it's something.
