The Basque Region- Get Ready Idoia & Inigo & Laia

In a few days, we're off to The Basque Region of Northern Spain for our summer holiday. Specifically, to this town- Larrabetzu.

Bells has organized a house swap through some very good friends- Idoia and Inigo, and we scouted it out this past February. See here and here for a few of the highlights.

Bells and the kids get a full month(!) of sun, chorizo and Festivals. I'm there for two weeks.

And, my parents are coming over for most of it as well- like Tuscany back in 2007.

The packing is halfway done. My beret is ready to go. The ferry leaves on Wednesday eve.

Dorothy Wijnanda Park has finally arrived. A healthy, petite (6lb, 7 oz) baby was born at 1:18 pm today, 28th of June. Baby and mother are both recovering from the delivery at Kingston Hospital in fine form. The first Park female on this branch of the family in 5 generations gets her name from my grandmother (Dorothy M. Baetcke Park) and a relative on Bella's side (Isabella Dorothea Akers). And also inherits Bella's middle name. Any advice on coping with daughters is heartily welcomed by the father.
