Day 1 of Our First Slow Travel Adventure
Portugal via Cancun
After raising three amazing children and dedicating over 30 years to our careers, we are so thrilled to start this next chapter of our lives together.
We’ve been talking about this type of travel for years. Having the luxury of spending several weeks somewhere, instead of being in the constant hustle and packing mode of a shorter vacation. Well, today’s the day we’re making it happen!
We got up unreasonably early to get ready for our flight to Mexico. We are starting our trip with a couple nights in Cancun as a positioning stop. This helps us avoid the massive fuel surcharges and premium taxes tied to transatlantic flights departing directly from the US. Then it’s on to Portugal for 7 weeks, plus a few days in Scotland and London on the way back home.
Stay tuned for our first stop, the Live Aqua.
Cheers!
Enjoy every minute! Love you both!
Wow when you do all the math, it is really less $$ to spend a few nights in Cancun than just fly directly to Portugal?? And presumably a substantial amount to make it worthwhile?
