Not a Day Tripper


I get an e-mail from My Sweetie today that says:

What’s the name of the hotel where you want to stay this January?

I send him the link:

http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/sandt-san-diego-marriott-hotel-and-marina/

Then I get THIS:

What time would you like to leave on Saturday? And what time should we come back Sunday?

And I'm all "WHAAAAA?!!??" Leave on Saturday and come back Sunday? Yeah, I don't think so. I'm not going to spend an entire day on traveling for a nice dinner in San Diego. I love San Diego, but not THAT much. The last two times I went on Friday. As long as I have one full day, I'm fine, but I'm not going to fly two days in a row just to spend less than 24 hours in San Diego. So now he's going to re-check everything and try to take Monday off so I can have my full day. Yeah, because, otherwise, no.

Awww. But it's so romantical! We literally took a train for 30 something hours for lunch in Seattle with some friends... well we did go on to a lodge after that, but I'm just saying - sometimes, it's worth it!

Jo said...

Did he say which Monday and which Sunday? They might not be back to back. Here's hoping... :-)

Jazz said...

I had the same thought as Josie. No such luck eh?

Personally, I think that first trip to San Diego sounded about right, unless I'm going to Legoland, of course. I haven't been there, yet.

Linda,
~~You must be a lot younger than me!

Josie and Jazz,
~~You guys are just weird. Of course he was talking about the Monday of the San Diego weekend!

Ticknart,
~~That's because you live so close. And I'm NOT going to Legoland.

I am literally green with envy, and it's not a pretty sight. San Diego I love.

LOL!
"Yeah, because, otherwise, no."

Made me LAUGH!!

That would seriously be ridiculous! You'd barely get the kinks out of your legs from the plane and then have to get the kinks back. *shudder*

I'm with you there, if you're going to travel by Cattle Car Air.... make it count. When we travelled to the UK & Ireland we stayed for 8 weeks and still didn't see everything, so we went back two summers later for another 5 weeks. At least we had the time to get the kinks out of our legs.

Ian,
~~I've always said it's the only other place (so far) that I could live.

Tai
~~Yeah, uhm, well then, okay. ;)

J,
~~Yes, I knew you would understand. Flying is an all-day job.

Big Brother,
~~Okay rub it in. How many people can take an 8 week vacation?

I hope it works out because that view is worth it! Wow!

Scarlet,
~~Me too! I love San Diego.
