| FINALLY!! |
see.
So…haywire?? A bit haywire…yup.
Bags were packed, Uber pulled up and we were on our way. Then we found
ourselves in a Deerfoot parking lot, but eventually took an alternate route and
made it to the airport - good thing we left our house 3 hours ahead. We got out
of the Uber to discover one of our 4 bags was MISSING!!!!! Pre-covid we would
never have packed more than one checked bag and one suitcase for a cruise,
however…now we each pack an essentials bag that we carry on and then each check
a suitcase. I realized when packing, that even for a cruise with it’s required ‘dressy’
clothes, that I could still get by with just a carryon bag.
Anyway…back to the mayhem. Girmay
(our Uber driver) and I made it BACK to our house and then BACK to the airport
with not too much time to spare. Chris and I decided that he would stay at the
airport and check 2 of our bags and then I’d be back and just have to go
through security – of course we figured out this plan AFTER we’d convinced Girmay
to bolt back to our house. So, we then convinced Girmay to pull over on Airport trail for Chris to get ANOTHER taxi/Uber
back to the airport to check in the bags.
Thankfully, security was a breeze
and Chris and I were finally reunited and were on the plane Champagne in hand.
Not the way, either of us wanted to start this vacation, but it’s ‘blog-worthy’
story.
