Friday Funnies: Take Me Away!

It’s been a while since I’ve written a Friday post. And although I meant to even while we were out of town for a month, things got a little hectic and I wasn’t able to post much. So what happened? Sickness. The first night we arrived my son had a stomach bug and that was just the tip of the iceberg. All three of us eventually went to Urgent Care in the next few weeks. My daughter had RSV, I had mastitis, and my son developed a terrible fever and cough with wheezing that needed antibiotics to clear up. Having both kids sick while on the road and away from our pediatrician was so hard. My husband wasn’t with us so that made caring for them even harder. On top of all that, the breast infection I developed totally knocked me out. The fever was so swift and so strong, I don’t think I’ve ever been so miserably sick.

So all in all it was a bit of a bumpy journey, but we made the most of it. And even though we didn’t get to do as many fun things as we would have wanted, it was still great to see family. I truly love travel, but it sure does take on a different meaning than it had, say, 10 years ago when I was hanging out in Europe.

Enjoy these links and have a wonderful weekend. (The weather is looking nice here! Sunny and 60 sounds perfect right now!)

#1 GeoGuessr is my new favorite game! Yes I’m a total geography nerd and yes I spent way too much time playing this.

#2 This is amazing on so many levels. I think I need one of these little Lego guys in my life. Read the feature on DeMilked or go straight to his whole set.

#3 When you’re traveling, do you ever read travel guides or has the Internet made them useless? (Gemma Correll on Tumblr)

What’s going on this weekend? Any travel plans on the horizon?
