Hi, this is Phil,

We are a few hours away from the big departure, although I'll have to wait a few more days because I have to work. We finally got Bryan's passport on Friday. We had applied 6 weeks ago, but somebody at the passport office misplaced the birth certificate. Finally, this week they found it, although I had to write a letter to explain the situation.
Now suitcases are almost closed, the Icelandic volcano is quiet, but British Airways flight attendants will be on strike. We'll see how it goes...

Summer Schedule

Hello,

I am Phil, the dad. I have been an elementary teacher since 2001. I have many interests: running, hiking, art, music, movies, technology, traveling, etc. I have taught all of my children at one time or the other. I am looking forward to going to Europe because the last time was 2 years ago. At the beginning of May I had a mild heart attack, one of my coronary arteries was blocked at 50%. I might get a stent before leaving, however I should fully recover by the time we get back. Here is our schedule so far:
