DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.

Guess what Robin he has to work on Thanksgiving and Christmas Day! He does have a friend who he does eat a lot at her house but they do not do Thanksgiving, well I told him maybe they should start. LOL But I will tell him about the Rocca Rosa, that sounds like so much fun. Usually when I tell him things he is pretty up on what goes on, but keep telling me every thing you know I like to show off in front of him. LOL I like cheap and I know he likes cheap I told him he better save his money we will be there before he knows it. How have you been Robin? You had some company from Italy right?

Hey Jill whats new?

LOL, Stephen said they have a holiday every other day.LOL But no turkey for Stephen this year, I do feel bad for him, I would love to have him home. I have flown to HA, that was had but AU is the worse it seems like day, 4 hours to CA and then 12 to AU, how about that flight, yes Robin we wll stay up that is for sure. $200 for airfare would love it, well if we every go back we will have to go with my daugher and go during the cheap months and stay with Stephen that will have a lot, and then I will just sit and starr at Stephen. LOL

Robin where have you been, missed you!

Hi Carrie!

Carrie, nothing seems to be cheap, don't fly into Chicago, that is where I live, yes O'Hara is one crazy airport but Midway is not bad at all. You have to be careful flying in he fall a lot of places close at that time of the year. Well we have to go when my daughter is out of school. Well this is it, next time Stephen will have to come home this is costing way too much. I know as soon as I found out my son was going I was looking at prices, I think the price I got is good but I don't know what you would pay during the fall, I did not think that $600 was too bad but $200 would of been better. LOL

Carrie, the first medal is when he went overseas, your daughter should get one also. Then he fixed a problem that Navy has been working on, she found the solution after he was there for a few months. Flying coach, non-stop was over $1,400 each so air fare for 3 of us was over $4,000 we could not do that, and we have to go at this time because of my daughter being in school, so now we are going to make one stop so airfare now is around $650 per person. We are flying into Paris and staying there for 3 nights and then flying to Naples and spending over a week with Stephen and the all of us are taking a train to Rome for 4 days, we will fly home from there and Stephen will take the train back to Naples. We are leaving on Northwest to Minneapolis and then Northest to Paris. On the way home we are taking KLM and stopping in Detroit and then to Chicago. We are leaving on the 24, if we could of left two weeks eariler the price would of been cut in half but with this stop the price is even a little cheaper, we will be gone for little over two weeks.
