Summer Travel (Reprise)

Okay, so we recently booked our plane tickets to the U.S., and here's the basic scoop:

We leave Vienna on June 22nd and arrive the evening of the same day in Seattle (gotta love the 9 hour time change). We're planning to spend about a week in the Seattle area, and really want to connect with all you Washington (and Oregon) folks if at all possible! So, please get in touch with us and let us know if there is a particular day/time that would work best for you to get together during the last week of June. I'm not sure what our transportation or phone situation will be, but we're hoping to get those details worked out soon.

Sometime during the first week of July we're going to make our way to Boise. I'm not sure if we'll try to drive down or if we'll take a Southwest flight over, but those are details for later as well. If we can find a way to drive we'd love to swing through Portland and The Dalles to see the folks out that way as well!

We'll be in the Boise area into the fourth week of July. Our flight back to Vienna is on the 28th of July, but it departs out of Seattle so at some point within the last couple days of our trip we'll need to head back up to Seattle. Again, we're not sure if this will be via car or plane, but if we DO drive there will be another opportunity to meet up with friends along the way (in central or eastern Washington, for example). Of course, we'd LOVE to find a way to see each and every one of you, and really hope we can make that happen!

To that end, we're going to try to organize some "Open Houses" while we're back as well. Last year we had one in Nampa and another in Boise, and really enjoyed those times. We'll probably do a similar thing this year, and would like to have a time like this in Seattle as well. We'll get back to you with dates and locations for these as they approach, so stay tuned for details!

We're REALLY looking forward to coming back for a bit, and do hope to see you and spend time with you. Again, please let us know if there is a certain date/time that you're available to hang out with us. Our schedules are flexible at this point, but we want to maximize our time spent with the folks we love and care about while we're back in the U.S., and we need your help in order to do this! So, don't be shy--let us know when we can see you!
