My Passport Cover
I have 5 minutes before my sister is due to arrive to drive me to the airport. So this is my 5 minute post. Hardly befitting the record of this momentous, historical and rather significant journey I will be making. How can I pen down all the emotions I am feeling at this point in 5, no , 4, no 3 minutes and counting?
So I will just say it like it is. I will be spending three weeks in Europe, starting with Barcelona to Genoa to be with friends who have become really dear to me, Amsterdam . Wankerdorf then to Gdansk, meeting friends for the 1st time and attending a miniature fair, for the first time as well.
I am like a child again.. Feeling emotions I have lost for years. I am so excited I feel like jumping up and down, so happy I just can't stop smiling . I am thrilled beyond words.
So Eva, Rosanna, Sylvia, Birgit and Ewa who have kindly offered to play host while I visit, WAIT FOR ME, I AM COMING!!! NOW!

Guess what - while writing a comment yesterday on your post my computer crashed once more!!! Aaaaarrrrrgggghhhh! That adds some more grey hairs, you will check that out (LOL). - What I wanted to say is: Hope you've had a fantasic journey and that you will have a miracle time in Europe. What a line of gorgeous cities: Barcelona, Genua, Amsterdam, Gdansk - and then a tiny, boring village called Wankendorf. I feel so honored and blessed to be among these...
See you soon - yippiiiieee!
Birgit
Oh dear Sans that is soooo great I am sure that you will have a time you won't ever forget! :-)
Have lots and lots of fun!!!!
Hugs Jollie
Que alegrÃa Sans! Un viaje inolvidable, con amigas.
Yo lo vivà en 2995, es una aventura, como un sueño, DISFRÚTALO!!!
Besos
How exciting! To get to see all of your friends and to attend your first mini show, too! A whole month!!! :) Very exciting and I can't wait to hear all about it.
Be safe and have a fabulous child, so nice to hear how excited you are. :)
Greetings from Barcelona,Margriet:). Thanks to the warmth and hospitality of Eva and her family, I am having the best time! :) Will you believe I have already "met" 2 curulle chairs in Barcelona!
Cinds!!! Eva is over the moon with your gift ! Your impossibly high standards to tini-ness and precision will be the subject of a show and tell with the Spanish miniaturists on 31/3. That's when I will meet them , I think it's at Eva's house :).
OMG Josje!!!!! Rosanna and I will be at the Arnhem Fair on 24/3. I really hope to see you there and if we have time , to grab some tea . We are traveling to Germany on the same day but on the night train. I am really looking forward to saying hi to you so you must,must,must and I will too of course, try and find you :)
Eliana, I have already taken some pretty pictures of Barcelona houses. Pretty because the "models" are gorgeous to begin with not due to my skills. I will put up the pictures soon.
Note to self: remember these names: Talamanca and Stiges
*ding -waving wand
Betsy, your dreams will come true! I remember saying that to a blog friend who really wanted to go to France and true enough about 1.5 years later( more or less I think) she did!!
It will come true for you too. Don't doubt that :):):):):)
Kikka :) having a great time . Even the jet lagging worked out for me. I sleep before 10pm and wake up at 5am to comment :).
Susanne!!!! I will be just totally and absolutely thrilled if somehow we can meet :) let me now go check if I have you're email.
Yes I do:) I will send you an email :). To let you know my itinerary. Let's see what fate has in store for us :).
Faiiiiii!!!!! You are talked about so much your ears must be itching!
We were at the La Sagrada Familia 2 days ago to see the new chapel. They created the columns to assimilate trees in a forest , amazing doesn't begin to describe it. Anyway, I turned to ask Alex the historical meaning of something , his quick answer was "I don't know, let's ask Fai. I am sure he can explain much better! " he then pretended to call you in his mobile. Haha
Alex is the most disappointed that you didn't come! Eva said " oh of course Alex is very happy you are here but you know, he was really hoping to see Fai again.."
I bought something for Margaret's birthday . I am thinking of sending some stuff back. See if you can collect it from office when they arrive ?
Birgitta :):) ( I don't know why the spellcheck on ipad calls you Birgitta , see there it goes again but I like it :) ) quick,,, go dye your hair , we are coming!!! :) kidding of course but now I know a tube of henna may be a good gift for you heh heh :).
I am the one who's really honoured that you are so kind to want to meet us :). Guess what I had for my 1st breakfast in Barcelona? Strawberries of course!!!!! They taste just like the expensive ones in Singapore :). You will be proud to know that I had 2 biggie ones :).
ONLY 3 weeks Dale, teehee not the whole month but yes, it is a long time away :). A luxury, a dream, a wish come true but no, I won't be having a child , no no ... Hehe just teasing you on your typo .
Thank you Drora.
I am really sorry that these past weeks or maybe even months ( time really flies) , I haven't had the pleasure to visit all your blogs. I must find time to do that soon. That was how I got to know so many wonderful friends I am meeting now.
I will Debbie :). Thank you!
Maria Ireland , this will be a historical trip for me because of the friends I will be meeting. Incredible,generous and yes, truly wonderful people :).
Ana, we were at the seaside town of Stiges yesterday and for some reason, I thought of you and Portugal and the secret hideaway you blogged about some time back :).
I will Natlia! Kisses to you too :).
By the way , You are taking forever to reply to my email !!! Heh heh I am so pushy even when I am far away from home :). I am just kidding, as usual . take your time , you know I will do the same :) .
Yo yo Faby ;) . Thxxxxxxxxx!
Flora, I am not only reading your lovely and heartwarming comment , I am replying !!! Woohoo! And from the comfort of a little boy's bed under a nice warm blanket closer to you than before :).
In 2 days I will be creeping even closer . I am not flying over your heads but towards your faces :):) like a mosquito :). It will be such a thrill if I can kiss all of your cheeks .
Patts, yes it is the Arnhem fair. THE fair as far as I am concerned ,the one that I really really wanted to see before the others. I will try and show pictures . By the way I have already went to my 1st fair. Quite by chance , they were holding the festival of patchwork and quilts in Stiges.. Some of the quilts really blew my mind! Will show some pictures :).
I will, V! Thx for the well wishes!
Jollie , will ou believe I thought the island of Lesbos was in Spain :)!

Hugs Jollie
lol! Took me a while to figure out what I was originally trying to say!
My excitement ran away with me. ;)
I meant, have a fabulous time with the child in you. :) Seeing things with the eyes of a child, like the excitement you stated in your post.
Sorry! I read that myself and thought, that is rather odd. ;) lol
