I kinda wish I could say I was out there skating or sleighing on "Family Day". No, I wasn't. I'm so over winter already!
I spent today doing something much better, by far, than exposing myself to the chilly elements of this crazy country. I spent today packing our suitcases, because we're heading to the Caribbean - Cuba - in 6 DAYS! Oh man, I am so ready for some sunshine!
When I told Lilah about our upcoming trip to Cuba she seemed pretty happy with my description. However, when I searched the hotel name and showed her the Google images of the hotel, pool, beach, etc... She clapped her hands with excitement and said: "Oh my, I think I'm more excited than you!" When Baba arrived home from work that same evening, she ran to him and said: "Baba! We're going to Cuba and you don't need your snowsuit there!" A few days later she was looking through a magazine and pointed out a picture to me. She said: "Oh, I think these people are in Cuba, because they're wearing shorts and t-shirts!" She's been telling random people about our trip, like the lady in the M&M meat shop and the teller in Farmboy!
She's very very excited! Today I practically had to peel her off the ceiling after mentioning that I was going to get the suitcases out of the basement. She simply couldn't wait to try on a few of her new outfits!
Oh my gosh! Where are you going? Which resort? We are too!!!!

Awesome!!!! Can't wait to see photos! Miss Lilah looks ready for action!!!! Love it!
ReplyDeleteI have traveled all over the world and never knew Cuba was an option. For some reason I thought it was a blocked country, and I have no idea where I got that assumption. Looking forward to seeing your pictures...it may be my next destination.
ReplyDeleteAwesome! These photos of Lilah are priceless. I hope you have a wonderful, wonderful trip!
ReplyDeleteBtw, what resort are you staying at? We went there in 2008 and stayed at the Barcelo Marina Palace in Varadero. It was fantastic!
Enjoy every moment :)
I predict you are going to have a wonderful time! Enjoy the sun and surf.
ReplyDeleteLilah looks ready to go. Have a great trip. I'm slightly jealous, ha ha.

Lilah certainly looks like she's ready go! She also makes me think of warm weather, ahhh, I'm so not a winter person. I know you're going to have a great time, can't wait to see the pics.
