Tonight the wife, three small daughters and I will be getting on a Coach for a week touring Northern Italy.

Thats right – a week with three kids on a bus tour.

If you see any news articles titled 'Man runs Amok in Perugia' or 'Pisa falls down after Brit picks child up by feet and dashed her brains out against Tower' then you will know my user name is free!

Have fun peep!

Enjoy your family trip, Pat, and take LOTS of pictures and video. It's amazing how fast the kiddos grow up.

I make it a rule to never go on a bus, let alone with the kids.

Call it an unreasonable fetish, but I really MUST be in control of the vehicle…..

Good luck…

Seriously – have a great trip!

I did something similar when my kids were small, plus I took my sister's kids too. When camping, my youngest was attacked by geese -- stole her pop corn, and my sister's youngest managed to get bit by a swan -- all within a few minutes. Cleaning fish was the grossest thing ever -- my sister's son puking violently while crying stop! stop! you're hurting it!!!

No TV -- my lord you cannot believe the cries of despair. Every meal was a fight and every excursion was a challenge. Still they did achieve a semblance of congeniality towards the end of the day when they were too tired to complain about the new venue.

I will always remember the comment of a young mother, struggling with her children, as my combined troop exited a wild life exhibit. "Look there, that's how a well adjusted family behaves."

If she only knew the half of it.

Wish they remembered the trip. They don't -- even when looking at the video we took.

Digby got DHed just in time: EIGHT days, and all of it will be spent on a bus with three kids: I'd take the EIGHT days in the DawgHaus myself!

It could be worse – Cliff Richard could be joining you and encouraging sing-alongs.

It was actually quite a nice time had by all

Dawghoused? for 8 days? an hour before I left the house for 9?

What ARE the odds?
