After the TRAM, my sister and her family arrived for a few days of fun before they headed to Wisconsin to see the rest of our family. Tom and I rode our bikes around Minneapolis, crossing the Mississippi four times (my niece: "Maggie loves her rivers"), and out to Excelsior, where we met Molly and my nieces for lunch and an afternoon of swimming. This was the day of 2015 that truly felt like summer. What a fun day.
They then went to Wisconsin and I went back to work.
To make a long story short, I then ended up rejoining them in Wisconsin after my dad unexpectedly had a serious health issue. I normally am the queen of TMI, especially on this thought-processing blog. However, I'm not going to go into details since it isn't my story to tell.
My dad did ask me when I am going to take a true vacation, rather than a biking vacation. While my cycling adventures help my physical and mental health, it did get me thinking about the amazing trips Dan and I took with my parents to Peru in 2006 and Egypt in 2009.
