WOW . . . 32 more days until the BIG 50! Hard to believe. It's been such a busy summer that the days have flown by.
Last week I traveled to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico with my two oldest friends. (nGage Today's Dream Destination of the month) The plan was to celebrate our half century mark in style with a wonderful trip! Of course, I have 32 more days, one turned 50 in May and the other will turn 50 next July. We had a fabulous time, nJoying every moment once we arrived. Of course, getting there was an adventure . . .
I was the travel agent, appointing myself as the obvious choice. (I travel a lot with my job so I have the system down, or so I thought) I booked three tickets, months in advance, for the airport near Cabo called San Jose del Cabo. Since I fly Southwest all the time for work, I immediately chose them as the carrier. (I'm loyal to a fault, and this time it came back to bite me) Months of planning and preparation culminated in to that steamy afternoon and our journey to the airport. Every moment choreographed to the second (not really, but we did have fun getting ready) Imagine, three women (25 year olds, trapped in 50 year old bodies) with matching shirts that say "Group Therapy" with three different wine glasses in rhinestones, walking through the airport, finally on their way to paradise, and they discover that the travel agent (ME) has booked them on a Southwest flight to San Jose California instead of San Jose del Cabo. (Did I mention that Southwest doesn't fly to Cabo, or anywhere outside the continental United States? NO, I didn't think so) Any who, there we are, destination San Jose California . . . NOT GOOD!
It would take me a couple of hours and several BLOG entries to detail the next 24 hours of the trip and we have decided to write a book, that will surely become a full length feature film, staring our wanna-be best friends, Carrie, Samantha and Charlotte, so I simply can't reveal that story-line now (breath). However, rest assured that it all turned out okay, as it usually does if you view your world as half full not empty, and we made a lot of people happy with our story along the way. Altruism at its best!
So, be sure to stay nTouch with all those dear old friends that you may not see or talk to but miss none the less. I grin every time I think about our adventure last week . . . Thank you, thank you, thank you!
