Planning Nightmare

 Planning a vaction is a stressful as going to work every day. The scheduling , deciding if you want to use a travel angency or not, booking tours or not.

 If you decide to go the tour route then its finding a Tour group that is legit because their is a lot tour scams out their. Finding a company that is well known and that has a package that is right for you. Then booking the tour on the dates you want Nightmare right there because after you get the tour set then you get your flights and hope that you can get the flights for the time you booked your tour.

 Then there is the pain in the ass of problem of getting the time of work for when all this other stuff is taken care of because you can't do this first because you have no idea when you can get the tour or the plane.

 In an ideal world you would be able to take the time off work first and then book the plane tickets and then the tour not the way they have it sit up now.

 But we all know this isn't the ideal world.

 And throw in the fact that this is the first time you planned your own vaction and you have no clue to what you are doing while I tell you that triples the stress right there.

 I am planning a trip to Australia for Sep 2008 I already requested days off but it looks like I might have to change that because if everything works out I am going to leave a week ahead of the time I requested off because I found a tour that fits my requirement better then the tour I was going to take with a well known company.

 Instead I found a company called FreshTracks which I have never heard about before I googled it. Have anyone out there heard of Fresh Tracks if so please, please let me know.

 So after I book this tour I am going to have to book the plane tickets and hope (knock on wood) that I can get them to mesh.

 Meanwhile I am getting a headache from trying to juggle all these balls I have up in the air.
