This might be the last BIG family gathering for a while. We
will all gather at the family home, but I don't have to do any of the cooking
:) Since I only have industrial size pots left our place is still the best
location and the house served us very well for large gatherings in the past. It
will be very different planning meals for two. I already find myself cooking
meals for about 3 days instead of 1. Oh well, leftovers are always welcome.
After yesterday’s icy surprise it looks like spring again
but I stepped outside and it is still really cold.
Tom printed the luggage tags last night and we have a final head
count of the pick-up-team. Everybody has to have entry passes or the port
authority will not let anybody to the pier.
