My parents flew out from Italy. It’s been their first trip to the US since they moved to Italy (temporarily) last year. It was nice to catch up with them and show them around the bits of Omaha they hadn’t seen yet.
This is us (sorry, Ian is taking the picture) laughing because Brit kept laughing.
We ate at a really nice restaurant called Firebirds, which has wonderful steak, by the way. Ian cooked an amazing dinner of pork chops, potato salad, potato wedges (for those against eating potato salad.. is there anyone? Oh.. Brittany!), and a lovely salad with homemade vinaigrette.
We toured Village Point’s shopping area, went to Kohl’s to do some shopping, then my dad bought loads of Jiffy cake mix and other various things to send back to Italy.
Oh, and we couldn’t miss going down to the Missouri River to see how overflowing it was.

In spite of being on 10 airplanes over just two weeks, it was great fun to be back where we can understand 99% of what we hear. Btw, I am now hooked on British bacon sandwiches, but hold the ketchup, please.

The british bacon is pretty good. I like mine from the roadside food vans in the UK.. hold the ketchup and HP sauce. 🙂
