A friendly touch

Well, after. getting up at 3:15 to get to the airport 2 hours early, as suggested, we had to wait for the check-in counter to open. So why do they tell you to come early!

Security is another matter. When traveling, I have always worn nylon trousers and belt, the new scanning machine is now so sensative that it did not like the velcro fasteners on my pockets. So at 4:15 I had an up close and personal encounter experience with a TSA inspector, at least he didn't expect a kiss after our triest.

We are off for Miami at 6:10 then breakfast , leaving for Cancun at 12:05

Another Adventure

Starting Friday we are off on another adventure. We are going on a short visit to Mexico. The timeshare company was offering special rates this fall, so who are we to turn down a good deal.

My step-daughter (Marcie) and her husband (Derek) will be joining us the first week, I let you know only because I don't need and questions of who the blonde bomb is. Marti will be there to keep me in line.

Posts will be made to "www.goplaya.com" but will link to facebook and twitter also.

Packing Day

Today is the last day for packing, the suitcases will be closed and ready to go tomorrow afternoon.

With an EARLY morning flight from Cleveland we go up the night before to eliminate that middle of the night drive.

By noon Friday we will be greasing up and basking in the sun.

 

Weather looks good for next week, mid to upper 80's with no trpoical weather warnings.

Less than a week

The piles have been made, stacked in the ONE SMALL SUITCASE and are ready to go. The carry-on is ready with a bathing suit for arrival and those last minute things. Was going to take an additional scuba course this trip, but decided to wait until the Feb trip, stilllplanning on going diving though.

Will try to start posting on Sat.

Two More Weeks

Only two weeks left, then the Playa Express is headed south again, short trip this time, only two weeks.

Time to start making the piles for the suitcase, one for swim trunks one for shorts.

Lets hope the weather stays favorable.

Can't wait to see our friends there.

Final Confirmation - a relative expression

Well, yesterday we received the FINAL CONFIRMATION for our December Rhine Getaway. That was only final until this morning when the email delivered a schedule change from Lufthansa. Stay tuned they only have three months to make up their minds.
