You must be having the time of your life! I wish I could be crammed in your suitcase for the journey, but I suppose the blog and Facebook will just have to suffice. That said, I am so sorry to hear about the accident that left your pretty lady in poor repair. I had a similar crisis when I was about 11 or 12 and my harp was knocked over by a clumsy kid at a school concert. The sounding board split wide open along the right hand seam. I was absolutely crushed, so I can identify with the feelings of loss you must be experiencing. But I hope that she can be repaired- mine was able to be fixed and I daresay she sounded even better after the fix than before, so there is hope. As with all great relationships, change is inevitable, and hopefully this will turn out to be a positive one. Can't wait to read your next dispatch, and thanks for sharing! Elaine Hey Gillian-
