Gearing Up

So I have one day left of work until my first trip on the list. I'm getting really excited. There was a slight change of plans. We are driving past Toronto and heading to Stratford instead. That is fine by me considering I have never been there as well. Plus, we added another single lady to the trip so this will be definitely the ladies weekend.
So I have been working on finding ways to travel to where I could go with a group but not have to have someone with me. The majority of tour websites, all of the prices listed don't include airfare. There is this really great tour company called Go Ahead Tours. They have this nice website where the airfare is actually included in the pricing. Also they provide some of the meals, which is a huge help. I am absolutely looking into this one trip they have listed for St. Patrick's Day in Ireland. The price is really reasonable considering airfare is outrageous! Now Ireland is my number one dream place to travel. I have a feeling that I will not want to come back after going there.
Well I will post as my trip to Stratford, ON commences...

And So It All Begins...

Well I was right. My first trip to my life of travel is a road trip to Toronto, Canada to see the Broadway production of Calendar Girls. I have never been to Toronto. I have been to Niagara Falls, both American and Canadian sides. This should be a good time. Not to mention I have never been on a road trip with this person before. I will make sure my camera is charged and ready to go.
Well this trip will happen next Friday. I have to make sure I am prepared and packed. I will definitely be blogging about it so stay tuned!

Anticipation

So a friend of mine, who I've only known a short while, called me after seeing the current show I'm in. Just a side note, I do community theater. She came to see me and really didn't stay too long. She called me on her way home to tell me how great I was and she loved the show. Then asked me quite the strange question, but for her not so strange. She asked me if I had a passport. Of course I do since I want to travel the world. Now I guess I'm waiting for more instructions to follow. She is suppose to send me out an email soon, either tonight or tomorrow. I'm not gonna lie. The suspense is killing me!
How crazy would it be if she took me somewhere. I don't know if I would be comfortable if someone paid for me but at least I may have someone to travel with even though I consciously made the decision just to go and not worry about taking someone with me. I'm really excited to hear about this idea. I wonder if it's to Canada or something like that. I wouldn't mind Mexico. My first thought was Italy just because any time someone mentions traveling to me that is what comes to mind. Well I will update you on what happens, even though no one reads my blog but that's okay. At least I'm getting out there...

Mother's Day

Well today is the day we pay tribute to the woman who spent ours in labor to give us life. The woman who sacrificed her freedom for dirty diapers and years of financial burdens. I thank you for everything thing you've done and who you are!
