Tick-Tock

Somehow it is already the middle of May.  This is both good news and bad news.

The good news is that it means we are finally taking our first trip to Bermuda!  We had purchased a pretty awesome deal from Groupon.  In case I haven't mentioned it before, I am a big fan of Groupon.  I haven't had anything go wrong with any Groupon that I've even purchased or used.

This was our first time buying a 'Groupon Getaway' and what we did learn was that before you buy the hotel or accommodations from Groupon, check the airfare for that destination.  The airline industry  makes it very hard to find reasonable prices to any place and geez, the amount of fees and taxes they add to the ticket price is hurtful to a family on a budget.

From our location in New York the flight is about a 2hr 20min trip.  For somebody like me who is extremely claustrophobic,which will no doubt be worsened by flying over the ocean the entire time, this is a pretty decent flying time and hopefully I will have enough time for my meds to kick-in before we descent.  I don't do very well on the decent.

My prize will be Bermuda.  I will come back with a couple of pictures to share.

As for the bad news, I'm going to be in Bermuda in less than 24 hours and I can't think of anything bad right  now.

(This is what I hope I find when I get there.)
