OK we got the call from or TA today - our docs have arrived AGAIN! This time they are correct. Yippee! No upgrade seems our cruise is sold out - :-(
Oh well, as I mentioned on our thread, I will be happier when we return from excursions and all we have to do is climb up 1 stairwell while everyone is waiting for 1 working elevator. ROTFL. I can always find a plus when I'm cruising!
Ok, so we got our docs, found out that the TA is springing for a limo service on our day of departure. WOO HOO! We leave LA in style. Believe it or not this will only be my 2nd time in a limo - I lead such a sheltered life! ROTFL! April on the other hand - I believe this will be her 6th or 7th time. When I die - I hope that I can come back as either her or Isis. Both are spoiled rotten. OK - Chloe is too!
Back to the limo - I again come out on the short end - upon the family's return they will be picked up at LAX by limo again. While I will be hailing a taxi at Barcelona's International Airport. That's ok though - I have just over 2 weeks by myself!!! Can you all tell I'm excited?
OK -so countdown is on - this time next week I will be bouncing off the walls trying to get to sleep. I have no idea how April will be doing. She is attending summer school (not required - she chose to go to get ahead for next year - the girl's a glutton for punishment) and will be taking her final exam on the morning of the 25th.
My plan is for us to get picked up from our house (in the limo!) at 1:15 so that we can arrive at the airport with some extra time. As some of you know - I tend to be a bit on the tense and nervous side when I travel. What a wonderful and calm way to start off this vacation.
OK - here are the participants in this journey of mine:
Steve, myself, Megan, April and Megan's BFF - Yesenia and the lucky last minute stand-in - Priscilla. Priscilla cheerfully stepped in when our son, Andrew, chose not to come on the trip. So that is our group - the ages range from 41 for both myself and my husband, Megan will have just turned 20 and her BFF is also 20. Priscilla I believe will be 21 in Sept. Alas - still underage for drinking. LOL!
We will be traveling in two cabins, are on deck 2 and they are inside staterooms. Just in case anybody out there hasn't been cruising - the inside cabins are basically little cells that have no windows. Steve tends to like these as they allow no sunlight in and therefore he can sleep in and there tends to be less movement from rough seas. So middle of the boat works fine for us! The funny part about Steve getting sick is that when he tried the patch - he got sick - so as long as the seas aren't too rough - we're ok.
OK - that's about it for now - I am still getting used to this. Hope you all enjoy - make sure to check back often!
