Honey, can you pick up some laundry detergent?

I have used this detergent in Austria and Portugal and am absolutely crazy about its scent. Both times, I've brought home the leftovers from our trips and s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-d them out to last as long as possible and still have that fragrance on my clothes. But, see, eventually I ran out of detergent and the fragrance faded and, well, Top 20 Travel Deals dropped into my emailbox today with a decent offer for a flight to Paris, and Leah's always wanted to go to Paris and it's her birthday this week, and we didn't have anything else planned for this fall, so click click click we went and the next thing you know, we're booked for a flight to Paris with plans to then bop up to Belgium and Amsterdam!

Hey, it was either that or head back to Alaska to replenish the salmon stash, but Scott and Jesse are taking good care of us with many trout dinners lately and we're already going to Nova Scotia in June, so hopefully they'll get a good fishing fix in while we're there.

I just hope they sell Dixan in France or Belgium or Amsterdam, or else we might have a heckuva detour along the way. And that's how we ended up in Venice the first time. All those teensy little countries, so close, so tempting! :-)
