I'm so excited! I've been saving for this trip for a year and a half. We won't get to do all the things I want to do b/c of time restraints but as long as we do the things on my A list, I'll be happy. Best of all, I'll be reunited w/a good friend that I met when I lived in Sedona. She was born and raised in Essex, England and she'll be our tour guide. I haven't seen her since '97 and my son has never met her. We're not going to go crazy w/the money; my son and I are sharing expenses but we're not going to pinch pennies either. I haven't had a vacation in 4 years and my son hasn't had one since he moved to L.A. in '97 so we're both due.
