Nothing is more honorable than a grateful heart. ~Seneca
The funny thing about Thanksgiving, or any huge meal, is that you spend 12 hours shopping for it and then another 4-5 chopping and cooking and braising and blanching and roasting. At least an hour to set the table. Then it takes 20 minutes to eat it after which everybody sort of sits around in a food coma for awhile. Then it takes four hours to clean it up.
So... I am almost finished packing for my return to Barbados. Many of you know how much my last trip was enjoyed. When just back found a wonderful airfare. That made this trip an easy one. Also booked my Hotel at a very nice rate. Same one I ended my trip in last time. Small, spacious, and right on the beach.Will be on the Island for 15 nights. Hope to visit and do places and things not done before as well as a few returns to some of the ones I liked best, to get to know them better. My hope is that you will take the Journey with me, and share my experiences.
First and foremost is packing! Knowing what I needed before should help me limit me. Also going for less time. So....why didn't it? Still the same amount of suitcases and the need to really...really push hard to get the zippers closed. Why?? Don't know and after a certain degree of frustration I gave up and just allowed myself a second suitcase.
Haven't been writing much, but in the midst of packing felt inspired! Those of you in the US Happy Thanksgiving. Hope you enjoyed all the football games.
As for me.....back to packing and some sleep. My flight leaves at 8am.....
See all of you back here soon.....
