The Travel bug

Has bitten again! I'm being totally irresponsible with my 'house' money and me and the little guy are going on a trip! My mother will roll her eyes and sigh and people will think I'm crazy, but who cares?

So here's the scene -

I have so much Long Service Leave accrued at work and they want me to take some

My friend in Colorado posted about a con that Adam would be at and offered me a place to stay beforehand

I got an email from one of the cheap flights places with cheap flights to the US

Put these all together - and - voila! We're going...

We fly out April 1st (I hope that's not a sign) and come home on about the 26th. I'm so looking forward to it :D

Now I've got to organise things! *bounces*

Not crazy at all! I say take full advantage of the traveling when you can. And the little guy should have a blast! Whereabouts in Colorado? I love Colorado Springs. So many things to see there.

Which con?

I'm thinking of a driving tour around the state and I'll definitely check out Colorado Springs, I googled it and it sounds awesome :) Have you any other places to suggest?

The con is Starfest08 in Denver. I'd send the link, but my computer here at home won't show it :(

Oh that sounds like so much fun!! I'm jealous =) Though I really could drive to Colorado for that Con in a few hours (I was debating about whether or not I wanted to go).

Of course you should go! If you do let me know - and we can say meet up :D

Should I warn Adam at Serenity:Complete [BEG]?

Perhaps you should! *grins* The reality is I'd probably be too tongue-tied to even say anything.

Can’t get enough of the states can you? ; )

You guys are going to have a blast. Is this your son’s first time traveling here?

Well I've got friends to stay with now, so that makes it more fun *bounces*.

The little guy came with me to Flan and we did the Disneyland thing. He has ideas about all the dinosaur sites in Colorado I think...

*bounces* Where in Colorado will you be staying??? I'm about an hour northwest of Denver by car, which I have. :D

I haven't brought myself to buy any con tickets after Flim Flam Flan, but I'd sure try to drive where you are to say howdy!

ETA: http://starland.com/sf-sc/sf08/ And I'm going to talk to the hubby about maybe going...

That's the one! *bounces* As well as Adam, I'm a big Star Trek DS9 fan so seeing Nana Visitor would be great too!

My friend lives close to Denver and I'm thinking I'll do some drives around too. It'd be great if we could meet!!! I do have the little guy remember - he can be very full-on :D
