sara, I'm sad for us but happy for you. But this year, we are being furloughed for all of Thanksgiving week, so I think we're going to go skiing.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

COOLEST TRIP EVER. Let's throw another eclipse on the barbie.

My parents joke this is how they are burning up our inheritance. I heartily go along with it (hell, I'd go along with it even if they weren't taking us.) Flight will be a bitch with the boys, but likely quantas and none of this pay-for-booze bullshit USAir pulled.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Ooooh. I want to go on that trip.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

My parents are burning our inheritance on my sister. To be honest, I refused assistance with the car (and she's not with hers), but what the hell kind of kid would I be if I took help while my mother was paying for cancer treatment and I could afford a car myself. So my savings looked a bit more echoey than I like for a while. I gotta job (in eternity, I fucking hope), I'm good.

I have to make a difficult decision. Maybe you guys could help throw out factors to consider?

I don't really know...

Because books.

Oh, there are no factors. I say Lolivya all the way.

That is a very awesome trip, sara! I like your family.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Lolivya you can just buy outright, so I vote that.

I don't know! Both seem equivalent. Lolyvia has a butler. I'd find out which caters most to those well familiar with the location. You want exceptional service and maybe don't need the tourguidey type. Plus whichever is likely to be most stable.
