Two more days until I take off on my "40th Birthday Cruise/trip" with my high school friends!!! On Saturday I flight to Winnipeg, meet my sister in law for lunch at the airport as she is flying in from Thunder Bay that morning too. Great timing. Then I catch a flight to Vancouver and spent the night with my sister. I am taking her the "Lizard" quilt so she gets an early xmas gift ( and this makes sure I have room in my suitcase for any shopping I might do on this trip). Sunday I meet my friends at the port and board the Golden Princess cruise ship for 3 days at sea. We arrive in Long Beach, CA on Wednesday and spend the next 3 days in this area doing all those touristy things. Then we are renting a car, driving to VEGAS and staying for 3 days!! Did I mention that my friends are just a little bit crazy? Oh I am so looking forward to this trip!
My husband had a great idea that I personalize my ever so common black suitcase with something 'quilty' so I can easily identify it at the airports. (Not only is he smart but he's cute too!!) So I made this little quilt block out of some dyed scraps and velcroed it around the handle. I think that will work great.
So I won't have access to a computer for the next 12 days so my blog will be quiet for awhile. I have a cupboard full of quilts awaiting my attention when I get back so I am looking forward to getting at those once I return.
WOW! How awesome for you! I can't wait to hear the tails you will have to tell when you return :) Prayers for safe journeys and happy thoughts to you for loads and loads of fun!! Happiest birthday wishes :)
