Over The Edge - "Sorry men, girlfriends are just more fun!"
Over The Edge - "Sorry men, girlfriends are just more fun!"

I just returned Monday from a wonderful trip to Spain with 34 fun women. I’ve been doing “Girlfriend Travel” now for five years with my travel buddy, Kathy Adkins, and it is a little like an extended slumber party. We begin with some girlfriends who know each other from the community, some who are making their fifth trip with us, and some newbies who have no idea what lies ahead.
As their “travel mom,” I have drummed into their heads the importance of packing their passports and arriving at the airport a full two hours before our scheduled departure. I have freaked them out with tales of potential traffic jams, forgotten cell phones, and foreign currency left on the dresser. Trust me, it happens.
