FINALLY

I can't believe that it's finally here - the week we are going to London - maybe! Last Thursday a volcano erupted in Iceland - Iceland for goodness sakes and it has thrown air travel to all of Europe in a tizzy. Because of the ash/smoke from the volcano, there has been no travel to London or anywhere in Europe for the last 5 days. Some places are finally flying but Heathrow is still closed. We leave in 2 days.

I talked to US Air this morning and if they cancel our flight, we can get a refund. Sarah read on the marathon page that she can defer her entry until 2011. Our hotel we have to cancel by 9 pm on the 23rd. So we are playing a waiting game. If our flight doesn't get cancelled - we are going. We can't thing about 'what if' something happens and we have trouble getting back home. If we think that way, we'll never go. So, we will go and we will have a GREAT time. Maybe the queen will even have tea with us - LOL. I'm excited, I'm scared and I'm worried. But I'm most of those things before a trip.

So, we are playing 'chicken' with the airlines - to see who blinks first!
