Prepping for the Trip

This adventure has been in the making for several months.  We are traveling with Tom and Kathy, Gloria's sister and husband, our frequent travel companions.  We are all recently retired so a bit more flexible in time, and we hope, energy.

Gloria and Kathy started the planning around Christmas with a final push a month or so ago.  It is a 'rental car and Airbnb' enterprise with a 6 page itinerary.  Tom's the driver, I am the navigator, the ladies are the tour guides.  We travel light with each allowed a backpack and a carry-on.  Gloria and I fly up to Vancouver where we meet up with Tom and Kathy for our flight to Dubrovnik.

Leaving Oakland Airport this time.  Note to self: if flying out of the Bay Area, do so on a Sunday morning.  No traffic, no construction.  Just a bit over 2 hours from home, not the usual 2 1/2 to 3.

See you in Croatia!
