It’s been a little bit frantic getting everything organized. Susie didn’t get back from her mum’s until late on Friday so we went to visit the travel agent on Saturday to go through the options and, hopefully, get our booking made.
In our minds, we were aiming to fly out on Friday (26th) but told Mr Travel Agent that we could go a couple of days earlier if this came in at the right package and price. Well, guess what, it did! So we’re off on Wednesday, a good two days earlier than planned.
Leaving on Wednesday means that we won’t be available for the Whitchurch ringing practice in the evening so we thought we’d better email everyone to let them know that there’d not be a practice due to short numbers. We included some of our friends from Pangbourne too as we didn’t want them to make the effort to join us and find the bells silent and tower locked.
To our surprise, we received an email back saying that Len and Jill were also off to Colorado too this week. One phone call later, we find out much to everyone’s astonishment that not only are they travelling on the same day, but that we’re all on the same flight to Denver! It never fails to amaze me the way life is full of these coincidences.
