On my way!

Yesterday was frantic, I packed, re packed and packed again.
It's almost two years to the day that I flew to Canada for seven weeks, combining a vacation with Little Buddy in British Coloumbia before visiting family & friends in Saskatchewan.
Knowing that Sir in Prairieland always says I travel far too heavy, I posted this image of my luggage to tease him...
This time I'm travelling light; well, one small wheelie suitcase, that weighs a ton I might add & my laptop case.
By the time this is published by Blogger, I should be enjoying the dubious delights of breakfast in Gatwick Airports Departure Lounge, having left home @ 4.45am!
It's going to be one hell of a long day.
I arrive in Las Vegas @ 1.30pm, their time, so will still have most of Tuesday in front of me!!!
Only hope the excitement keeps me awake.

That's not too much in luggage. You did good!

OUCH... I was wondering how long the trip would be and it sounds looong. I hope you get a good movie to watch on the plane.

Mom is soooo jealous! She was to go to Vegas too.

It is the right amount of "stuff" to take being that you will be away from home for so long!! Are you sure you have enough? Not to worry you can just buy more if you need anything!
Las Vegas!!! Oh do enjoy the warm sunny weather! We are happy you will have your laptop. I am jumping back on the blogging gig so expect to see me and Willow around. Be safe.
