Late Start

Hi all! I want to apologize for getting such a late start on the blog. Thus far, the Internet situation in Europe has been a nightmare. At the first hostel, the connection was non-existent; at the second, it was described as "hit or miss, mostly miss;" at the third, we had to pay; and at the fourth, it had completely crashed. Needless to say, it has been a frustrating experience. I will try to be faithful about getting it up-to-date and keeping it updated, but I cannot make any promises. Miss you all!
