The trip is on, Oregon, here I come!
July 10, 2008
BF pulled it off: he found a round trip itinerary for which we could redeem his free ticket voucher, so I’m going to Oregon to see my cousin in August!
It’ll be a long weekend for me, but unfortunately something came up at work and she has to go in, after all. Boooo. Perhaps I can bring her lunch at work. š
We’ll probably go out on the town one night, and I hope we’ll go hiking on Saturday. Because I’m flying United, I’m already trying to mentally maximize my carry-on luggage and minimize the amount of stuff I’ll have to bring.
I’ll be staying at her house, and she has more toiletries and make-up than I’d know what to do with, so I don’t have to waste room on those things. Just the basics, really, two pairs of jeans and three tops. Appropriate shoes.
So excited!!
Yes–avoid those baggage fees if at all possible…they suck!! US airways and united are the worst ones.
Sense: And I hear that Northwestern has joined the baggage fee club as well. I’m finally going to be one of those obnoxious travelers bringing oversized carry-ons. Actually, we all will be!
If I had a blog, I could post this on it but I don’t. So, here’s some info that might be of interest to you. š
