I think there's about 14 people going... My great-aunt is actually getting married. Her husband passed away about 6 or 7 years ago, and she has been seeing this Mexican guy for 4 years now. They've decided to get married, and as far as she knows it's just her son and daughter going down, so she'll have a big surprise when we all get off the plane Besides her son and daughter, there's her son's family (with two small boys), another second cousin of mine and her family (2 small boys and one small girl), then my grandma, great-uncle, and my brother and I.
My grandma and I will be sharing a room just because neither of us felt comfortable alone. I'm a little worried about that though! I'm sure my cousins and I, and for sure my brother and I, will go out a couple nights for some drinks. We're even touring a tequila factory with free tequila samples! But I lived with my grandma a couple years ago while I was on a work term for school. One night I was going out with friends and she asked if I would be drinking and driving and I was like "Oh no! I'd never do that!" but she took that to mean I don't drink alcohol at all. She's made countless comments since then about it, like "If I ever saw Lindsey pick up a beer I'd probably fall out of my chair and have a heart attack!" So I'm going to feel like either I can't have a drink at all, or I have to try to hide it. She also doesn't know I have my tongue peirced, which I have to take out for the airport metal detectors! I think after this trip, my grandma might have a lesser opinion of me..

Congratulations Lindsey on your trip. I'm sure you'll have a wonderful time. Take lots of pictures to share with us okay? Would really love to see the landscape, buildings and well, just everything.

Lindsey, that sounds like a wonderful vacation, especially to get away from the frigid weather you're having up there. You won't want to go back home when it's over!!! It will be a wonderful surprise for your aunt. She'll be so excited that you could make it to her wedding. Have a good time, stay safe, and take lots of pictures for us!!!

Lindsey, what a treat! I'm so ecite3d for you. Your travel dreams are beginning to be realized. You're going to love the ocean and the heat. I think your aunt will be so pleased. What a wonderful family.

As a grandmother, there id very little that can lower your Grandmother's opinion of you. Certainly not a beer or two or a tongue ring! Grandmas love you just because you're you.

Have a ball, and take lots of pix.

Safe trip,

Judy
