Jan - it sounds like maybe your problems or issues are behind you now, keeping my fingers crossed for you. Luggage under control, VISA's in hand, and airline not on strike - and you got to spend time with your Grandson!! :D
I'm sure it will be a wonderful trip and you will come home with wonderful memories.
Peggy - you too, sounds like you all have a wonderful adventure in store. Wish we were coming along for even part of it.
