News and prayer information from Richard and Pinuccia Wilson

I have finished my public work for the year (although their is still a lot of administrative and computer work to do yet), and today we are busy finishing things up and packing. Tomorrow we leave for Sicily, and it will be a very long day – we leave at 1am, and should get to Salerno (just south of Naples) around 11am, depending upon how many stops we have to make. Then we put the car on the ferry and leave at 12.30 for an eight hour sea trip, arriving at Messina on the corner of Sicily. Once off the boat, there are another three hours by car to Pinuccia’s parents place. So we should arrive, just, on the same day we leave. With most of the driving taking place at night, we hope that the children will sleep then, and then can move around during the day on the boat (whilst I will try to sleep a bit, if possible). It will be an interesting trip, especially as both Stefania and Daniele have colds, so no one in the house has slept much in the last three days. Anyway, we will be away for about 3 weeks, so I will be in reduced blogging mode for a while.
