The Final Plan

You guys are probably so sick of hearing about my upcoming Disneyland trip. The final plan was decided upon, and we are driving. My sister called me the last day of her trip to Hawaii, told me about her flight’s 7 hour delay, and after the flight cancellation for the cruise, she’s skittish about flying to California. Our Princess Breakfast is at a particular time, and if we miss, her money is gone.
So we start our journey on November 14th, and will arrive at Disneyland on the 17th. I’ll have a steroid pack, suggested by my pain management doctor, but yeah, I’m still a little nervous about my back. They have a mattress in the back of their van, and I made mention of lying on it, and my sister said, oh, that’s just if you need to lie down. Uh yeah, that’s definitely going to happen.
So then Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday we’ll be at Disneyland, and then leave that Thursday morning to go back home. It should be a fun road trip. The kids still don’t know yet. My sister said she doesn’t want them to ask her every day for the next three weeks if it’s time to leave. I wish she’d tell them. Maybe I’d get psyched up about it.
What’s up with you guys?

I can see where sis is coming from. They trip will be trying, but probably ultimately worth it. I wish I was going to Disney..not this year!!!

Flying seems to be risky business these days. You are more in control when you drive.

I’m going out leaf looking.
I’m so glad you decided to drive. I have a musician friend who posted on Facebook about how he got stuck in London because his flight was canceled, so he had to tote all of his gear to a hotel then BACK to the airport the next day for the flight. Ain’t no cancellations in a car!

Got some cleaning done this morning that I'm happy with, and now I need to find some papers in my email that I was supposedly sent so I can fill them out.

I am so glad you are driving rather than flying. I’ve heard so many stories from friends lately that involve long flight delays and cancellations. Flying gets a person to the destination quickly, when, and IF, it goes according to the plan. There seems to be a lot of trouble with that right now. The main thing is for you to take the best possible care of yourself so that you can enjoy the time with your sister.
