So, now it’s decided... We cancel our trip (5days
Disneyland, 2 weeks Hawaii including Honolulu marathon).
They haven’t done the surgery early enough for mom getting the cast early enough to make our original flights and rebooking them would have been crazy expensive ( and I mean crazy expensive) because the flights are almost completely booked.
But my mom got out of the hospital today and she feels really good, no pain so far...(keeping my fingers crossed that it stays that way and for a speedy recovery) That’s far more important than any vacation could ever be...
So, now we plan to redo the trip next year! Though we still have to decide if we’ll give the marathon another try... and I have to see about work (I hope to start my first job next spring... but should be able to take a 3-4 weeks long leave by November...if everything works out as planned) I think we give the holiday time another try... so now I can start planning again...
Oh, and not to forget: I snatched new flights for me to and from LAX... (just have to try to change my mom’s reservation with Best Western to my name... I hope that won’t be a problem)...
So, now I‘ll arrive nov 27th and leave dec 5th for a solo trip...
5 Park days, thanksgiving and Monday (dec 2nd) will be my rest/shopping days...(so pretty much like I had originally planned just without my mom and dad...)
My first ever complete solo trip! I am a little nervous (alone in the US and a 12h flight) but extremely exited! I guess I have to do laundry now and start packing...
