Vacations

I'm home from my latest trip, a Caribbean cruise. It was wonderful, but now I'm faced with the most unpleasant task of any trip - unpacking. I've finally figured out why I hate unpacking so much. Once everything is put back in its place and the luggage stored, the realization hits that the vacation is really over.

On my first night home, I woke in the middle of the night and tried to remember where I was. My first thought was that I was still in Seattle which was my August trip, then I thought I was still on the ship. It took me quite a while to realize I was back home in my own bed. My next problem was trying to figure out the day.

It was a wonderful trip, I saw a lot. I even saw some animals, they weren't wild, but they were animals. Now it's time to think about my next trip.

I'd like to try to help you. Leave your luggage out. Use it as a hamper. Then, you will always think that you are somewhere on vacation, and every day, look for another one of those beautiful rainbows that you saw last Friday, while you were at sea.
Feel better?
What a fun trip...Thanks for keeping us a part of it!
