Final Goodbyes

Before we left, the Squadron had a great Farewell Party for Papa and his friends Pedro, Banzai and Pinball.
I had a great time and I remembered to wear Buzzard purple.
I asked Eri if he would like to join me for a picnic.
He gladly accepted the invitation.
And then for old times' sake, I stole his hat one last time. I miss you Eri...and Kian....and Emma...and Logan...and Dominic.....and Lucas....and...................

Just Hanging....

....out in the Base Hotel, after we moved out of my first home.

How Ironic

After Papa's flight, we hung out in the Squadron for a little while.

A little catch-up first....

A few days before we left Italy, Papa had his final flight with the Buzzards.
Mama, myself and a number of friends went to watch him land.
Papa's friends hosed him down and sprayed champagne on him which upset me a great deal until Mama explained that they were just playing and Papa wasn't hurt.
Plus, a kiss from Papa sealed the deal. I'm not too sure about the smell of champagne though...
We will definitely miss our Buzzard friends. See you again soon and until then....Buzzards Rule!

Arrivederci and Hello!

Well, we did it. The move from Italy to the US was successful. The trip was crazy - think lost stroller, bags routed to the other side of the country, Mama in a loud argument at a ticket counter, hours of delay, and no air-conditioning in the Chicago airport - and you will get the picture. But, we made it, and we have been busy having fun in Seattle. Mama and I are going to do our best to get the blog up-to-date in the next couple of days, so be on the lookout.....
