Land of the Raccoons, I shall return!

A couple of days ago, I purchased a round trip to the beautiful Vancouver, British Columbia. Everything seemed to go smoothly, I got a confirmation email and everything, but the website begged to differ. It said my reservation could not go through because of 'available delivery options'. Whaaaat? I checked my Visa statement, and sure enough, nothing was there. The nerve!!

However, today I decided to check again before calling the damned help line, and suddenly the payment went through. Sure! Just make me stress about it for a day or two before you decide to go through, money! Thanks for that! But I called them anyway just in case. I would hate to show up at the airport at 7 am (which is not my ideal time of day), suitcase and overflowing tote bag in hand, and be denied my much needed visit to paradise. The very nice lady on the phone assured me that it was confirmed and that there should be no problem. Thank fucking god. This is one of the first things that I have purchased through my brand spanking new Visa, so this experience was a little nerve racking. But once I actually get to the airport, I'm going to be a wreck. This will be my first time flying by lonesome, AND I'm terrified of flying to begin with. The last time I flew wasn't so bad, so maybe I'm getting better. One can only hope. At least this flight is only about an hour!

This trip isn't for another month, but I couldn't be more excited! I can't wait to see some raccoons!! And my best friends, of course.
