Good luck. I hope it all works out for you.I'll use the new luggage on the Mexico City trip, and the price was good enough to justify the cost. We did mention to the current priest about doing a pilgrimage with his new parish, and he was interested. And there's nothing stopping us from putting together a pilgrimage without the new priest. There are companies that specialize in that sort of thing and they can provide one of their priests, but it's always nice to have our own priest involved. For the Italy trip, it was especially nice since our priest had lived there for several years and we got to do things, and see things that weren't on the cookie cutter tour.
