Hello Everyone and welcome to our blog of Cecilia's first trip to Rome.
Five years ago, on Luella and my first trip to Rome, we made a promise to each other to bring each of our Godchildren to Rome as a reward/encouragement when they received confirmation. Since Cecilia is my oldest Goddaughter, she gets to be our first pilgrim.
Cecilia has just completed her first year of confirmation class and should receive the sacrament next Easter season. This is a picture of her while waiting for our 7:00 AM flight at LAX.
Our flights were long, and truthfully, not that fun. On the LAX to Newark flight, we had one of the most annoying families ever, sit right behind us. Between their fights with the flight attendants, the kids playing drums on the tray tables, and practicing kick-boxing on the seat backs, we were quite happy they were not continuing on to Rome. Our Rome to Newark flight, had some "LOST" like turbulence. If any of you are fans of that TV show and are wondering where that mysterious island might be, we suggest you look off the coast of New Jersey.
Just like the "Cecilia Owner's Manual" warned, Cecilia woke up on the plane (the flight was a red eye) with a migraine. However, also like her owner's manual said, she completely knew what to do and after a long nap this afternoon, she felt and looked great.
