Trip to NY - The adventure begins...

So... We were hoping to make this trip as inexpensive as possible... (I know, good luck). We figured we could swing it because I have about a week of vacation time saved up at work, hotel rewards earned from all of Rodd's recent work travel, and a sister that works at Jet Blue and so graciously offered us Buddy Passes. Even with all of this it will not be a cheap trip, but we will be saving a ton... or so we hoped.

24 hours from departure: I get a text from my sister-in-law. Upon check in she realizes that we are likely not going to make it on our flight, and probably not for the next few days. So here I am up in the middle of the night looking for one way tickets to NYC... check.

Now... Our flight leaves about 3 hours earlier than planned and we are both working full days tomorrow. We have not packed, and we need to drop off our beloved felines at my mother's house who (without hesitation) has offered to watch over them while we are gone. Thanks Mom!

*sigh*

We'll get there... then have lots of happy things to write about. :)
