We have already done two months of RVing in Spain and Portugal back at the beginning of 2017 and we loved it, that is why we want to go RVing there for a longer length of time.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136052866820208847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-44387039071399087542019-10-14T09:00:50.122-04:002019-10-14T09:00:50.122-04:00That is just the way we do things.

We have no plans on going to Machu Picchu or the surrounding area, at least not on this trip. <br /><br />I am sure that we will be giving the Pisco Sour a try but not so sure it will be in the Gran Bolivar Hotel, although we will probably drop in there for a visit, just to see the interior of it.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136052866820208847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-44294090865488336092019-10-14T08:50:22.731-04:002019-10-14T08:50:22.731-04:00Who knows but I wouldn't count on it!Who knows but I wouldn't count on it!Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136052866820208847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-34004703828512056282019-10-14T08:49:31.040-04:002019-10-14T08:49:31.040-04:00We think so! :-)We think so! :-)Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136052866820208847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-55309821585123590812019-10-14T08:49:12.969-04:002019-10-14T08:49:12.969-04:00It is just the cancellation insurance that comes w...It is just the cancellation insurance that comes with our TD credit card. They will of course only reimburse you for what you paid for with that credit card and only under certain circumstances, like when I was sick back in May. You have to contact them first to make sure your cancellation is within their requirements and then send them all the proper documentation that their require and once they approve it they send you a cheque. Our Scotiabank credit card which is the same one you have, does the same thing.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136052866820208847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-32605145852391872092019-10-14T08:43:56.761-04:002019-10-14T08:43:56.761-04:00We are too because it just gives us more of a chan...We are too because it just gives us more of a chance to work on our Spanish.

Making lemonade from lemons is just part of living a satisfying life, and you two do it beautifully.<br /><br />We depart next week for a 10 day hiking and wine tasting RV trip along our beautiful central California coastline. Truly, if we' are not gone at least one week out of every month I get positively antsy. Even as there is literally no shortage of wonderful things to do where we live. #wanderlust!Tamarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18248579159497266955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-46637702844134014422019-10-13T10:23:24.873-04:002019-10-13T10:23:24.873-04:00That's still a great deal!
