First attempt at a trip report so bear with me.


I’m too much of a worrier so have to head to St. Louis on Thursday. Boss calls me Thursday night tells me I got a promotion – woohoo good start! Too excited to sleep now. Friday flight is at 7:00 a.m., so gotta be up by 3:30 a.m., ugh!

DAY ONE


Wake up before the alarm or wake up call. Jay thinks I’m nuts! Head to airport, to hurry up and wait. Got Starbucks coffee and a roll. Things go smoothly and flight departs right about on time. Forgot to bring something to keep me occupied on the plane, big mistake! So excited I can’t stand it!

Finally can see the water – woohoo we’re there! It’s a little cooler than I expected, have never gone in January before, whine at hubby “I better get a tan”. Our funjet rep is there and whisks us to our driver. Arrive at the Royal around 11:30. The place is totally awesome! Checkin was quick, we had done the online check in for room 196 and yes, that’s the room we received. Of course it wouldn’t be ready till after 3:00 pm. No problem, got our purple bracelets and changed clothes and headed straight for the bar right off the lobby. Had to have our first margarita with a beer chaser and the bartender was happy to oblige.


Now to figure out how to insert a photo....
