Dedicated to family travel. This blog used to be about the "girls only" trips, but lately I've decided it'll do nicely for all our travel adventures whether lots of us are going or only one or two of us.

27 days and counting

Welcome to the "official" countdown. Hopefully, I'll update it DAILY for the next 27 days or so--or at least until we're off to Vegas, Baby!!!

So, with 27 days left, today would be a good day (since it's New Year's Eve) to reflect on our many blessings, not the least of which is getting the heck outta Dodge in 27 days! More practical ideas to come in the days ahead, but for today, that's as good as it gets!

Life is good in cruise land!

Let the Countdown BEGIN!


Four weeks, four weeks, four weeks, from now--sing it with me--we're sailing in four weeks!!!!



That's right, only four more weeks until we're sailing the deep blue seas. No husbands, no kids, (okay, no minor kids for three of us), no phones, no contact. Just sailing, sun, and margaritas!



Adios, Muchacos. The mamcitas are having a fiesta!!

Formal Clothing

Alright, it's official.  I have cruisitis now!!!  


I was wondering what we'll need for dining apparel.  For a 7 night cruise there are 4 casual nights (sundress/pants), 1 smart casual (dress or pantsuit), 2 formal (cocktail dress) nights.  Yikes.  Where am I going to pack all of that?????

Minor detail...I'm so outta here!!

Question

Is anyone bringing an iron?  I thought one of you managed to sneak one on last time.  I'm thinking I'm shoving tons into 2 suitcases and will need to iron.  Any plans?

Tropical Deodorant

In honor of our upcoming adventure, I bought a new deodorant---Secret's Tropical Mango--or some such smell.  The cool breezes are blowing in my arm pits AS WE SPEAK!!!

Clock's a Tickin' for Tanning

This is it, ladies.  This is the last week to start a 6 week tanning session and be able to finish it before we sail!!

As for me, I'll be tanning in a bottle!  (Bottle of margarita mix, that is!)

Cruise Documents for Two

Well, it's official. Sharmi and I are cruising. I printed off our cruise documents today. RCCL sent them to me.....ALL nineteen pages!!! I'm guessing that what is holding up the other two is that Libby doesn't have her flight information. At least last I knew she hadn't booked a flight yet. Anyway, me and Sharmi WILL NOT be stopped at this point!!! Hope you other two can join us!

Update on the Countdown (12/8/07)

Forty nine days to Vegas, baby!!! Fifty-one to the real fun (at least in my eyes!). Can you believe it is this close? I MUST lose some weight or I'll be running around naked. Doubt I'll be able to squeeze into anything at my present plumpness. Too cold to get out and walk. I refuse to pop in a tape and workout with Marty around and he NEVER leaves! Alas, woe is me.

Any luck with the babysitter situation baby sister? Get 'er done! We would hate to party without you. BUT we will if we must.
