sabbatical logs

Departed for Palermo, Sicily—a connecting flight from Rome.  Arrived August 4th.  Upon arrival, my luggage was damaged.  Went to declare the forms as my family waited unknowingly.  Finally, met my family and explained my tardiness—I am now at my 2nd home.  My family in Italy lived in the States for over 20 years before returning back to Italy--my aunts, my grandmother (who was more like a mother), and my grandfather (now passed) raised me —I’m home, at least for a brief while.  Yet, I’m tired from the flight.  Before taking a nap, we eat and eat well!
