It has to be the biggest thrill in the world, for me to book a trip. Right before I book a flight I get nervous. My palms start to sweat as I double and triple check the details. Is it the right day, the right time, the right airport? Is there enough money in my checking account to make the purchase? Did my boss give me the OK for the time off? These and a million other questions rush through my head.
But once the tickets are bought…the excitement kicks in. There’s no turning back! Whatever else gets planned has to work around those flights. The foundation of my trip has been laid.
Right now, I’m about 3 weeks away from my first Las Vegas trip. The closer I get to the trip, the more frequently I find myself Googling things about Vegas. I’ve got a decent layout of the strip in my head already. I know the prices of the shuttle from the airport. I could even tell you a few restaurants that fit my shoestring budget.
This is the feeling people tell you to aim for when they say, “you need something to look forward to.” If you are ever lucky enough to be given a surprise trip, the anticipation and emotions you’d normally spread out right up until your trip open like a flood gate. Just take a look at this little girl: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDzQ5sI_9F0
Do you need something to look forward to? Go ahead, book a trip!
