I'm Officially Italian! Now off to Spain

I received word this morning that my Italian passport has arrived.
At long last, after a year’s worth of hard work, I've had my Italian citizenship
officially recognized. In theory I’ve been an Italian citizen all along (I got
it through my grandparents) but now I inally have an Italian passport. It feels
very good! Now on to the next step. Although what that is I’m not quite
sure!
It’s an odd day to get this news, coming as it does right as I’m
preparing to fly to Barcelona tonight for a 10 day road trip from Spain to
Provence. As you can imagine I have lots to do so I don’t even really have time
to think about this development. I’ll probably have a little celebratory dinner
at the beginning of August when I get back. I know lots of people will be glad
to hear this news, especially my grandmother who did so much work making this
happen.
This trip will give me some time to reflect on what comes next, and I think it will be easier to come to a good conclusion about that while I'm outside London.
