Going through my usual pre-travel routine:
1. Get out all the clothes I think I might take, then try everything on and reduce it all to what will fit into my carry-on.
2. Check out all the stores to see if any of them still have swimsuits. (I found out that Spanx now makes swimsuits... they're great!)
3. Make plans to make sure the cats will be cared for (both indoor and outdoor).
4. Promising myself to exercise every day so I can wear aforementioned swimsuit (so far not too successful).
5. Visit my doctor to get Xanax for the flight.
6. Find all my favorite cosmetics in travel sizes.
7. Purchase a guide book with a map.
8. Type out my itinerary for mom, sister, and next door neighbor.
Go!

ReplyDeleteI will!
ReplyDeleteAloha!
ReplyDeleteOh, this is so wonderful.
Never mind my little bit of *envy*~
The Big Island? Marvelous.
What a tonic for your soul, and your soles.
I am very happy for you!
Pack, prepare, then reduce your packing by half and double your cash limit, and you'll be fine..... And have a wonderful time!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, my friends. Hawaii really is a tonic for my soul. It's so natural and so beautiful, I always feel a sense of renewal when I go there. It's a long, long plane ride from here, but so worth it.
ReplyDeleteI looked at the photo and thought "Iceland!" .
ReplyDeleteI wasn't too sure why you'd need a swimsuit though .... then , reading the comments , I saw it was Hawaii .
Fabulous trip . Enjoy !!
