Another landmark

I know we keep announcing these "fatalistic" time-based landmarks relating to our evermore imminent departure from these isles, but this one is quite significant which kind of struck us unawares this morning.

Exactly 3 months from this point (around 9:30 on November 19th, barring any air traffic delays) we will be seated in the airplane that is taking us one-way-ticket back to the US.

3 months. That's nothing! It will be gone in an instant.

It's scary and exciting all at once. How we will feel exactly when we arrive is any body's guess. Doubtless it will take some time to settle in, at which point we will try to think back to the day we landed in Brussels with one-way tickets -- at the start of this adventure -- with nary but our suitcases and the clothes on our backs.
