I haven't had a proper vacation since 2002.  We've had a few weekend trips, but not a real getaway with sand and sea gulls and she crab bisque.  You know, the beach.

Today, three things fell into place and we went for a plan that had been roiling around in our minds for a few months.  The room was still available so its done. 

It will be interesting to experience another trip as a couple.  Sometimes people are cool (Canada), others they are sort of "la la la, I pretend you are sisters" (Cleveland).  We celebrate 7 years this Sunday so this is a good way to celebrate. 

Plus, she crab bisque.
