Bermuda, April 1971.............Spring break with my college girlfriends and I was certain I had died and gone to Heaven.  So while there I made a promise to return on my honeymoon with the man I loved.  Well, 3 (yep, count 'em 3!!) honeymoons later I, sadly, still had not returned.  And then I discovered Luxury Link and an auction for Horizons & Cottages.  One click and we were almost there!  I could see the pink sand, feel it between my toes.  Are we there yet?  I was childlike with anticipation and glee!  So much so that we arrived at the airport 3 hours early, presented boarding passes and passports and waited for seat assignments.  The agent studied the screen for a VERY LONG time and then uttered the dreaded words:  "It's coming up expired passport".  With attitude I demanded:  "Whose?" and she quietly said "Yours".  Tears were instant.  I HAD WAITED 36 YEARS!!!  Please can't you just look the other way?  We're nice, we're attractive, we're in love and I HAVE TO GET TO BERMUDA!  It just wasn't going to work but Plan B was forming.  Aren't we in Washington, DC?  Can't I go to the Passport Office?  Can't you put us on a later flight?  And the answers were yes, yes and yes........ a day later.  Horizons, Bermuda and the beatiful sand and surd were worth the 36 year and 24 hour wait.  And so was the my husband who never said a reproaching word except to remind me to stop crying because they would be taking my picture at the Passport Office!  paularec aka corgigirl
