Getting ready for the plane ride.
Great Wolf Lodge, Wmsburg, VA
Home away from home, or temporary lodging as the Navy calls it. We awoke mid day on Thurs to a beautifully sunny day.
Dancing in the German "Bier Garten" Busch Gardens, Wmsburg.
A glimpse of things to come ....
Prior to leaving for Italy We tried to tire the children out at Busch Gardens and Great Wolf Lodge in Williamsburg, VA. They were thoroughly engaged in activity and can describe in detail the Tornado!

The Flight
We departed Norfolk Naval Base at 9:50 PM on Tues 28 July (local time) and arrived at Capodocino, Italy on 29 July at 4 PM (local). We had a brief layover in the Azores mid flight. This allowed the opportunity for all those who might have fallen asleep to get a second wind To ensure the fullest degree of "zombieness" upon arrival at the Naples Airport.

The one hour layover in the Azores, local time 0600, was just long enough to give a second wind to our almost sleepy children! The sun was just rising over the lush green fields as we landed, Reminding me of photos I have seen of Ireland. We were confined to the terminal Which had no services due to the hour. The lack of seating was not a problem, who cared to sit when we had another 5 -6 hour flight ahead? The murals on the wall were beautiful as you can see behind the children.
Ahhh, Terra Firma at last. Posing on the tarmack at Capodocino Airport, Italy. This is immediately adjacent to Anthony's work.
