So what if the passport's expired

Well, I haven't had this much stress preparing for a trip...ever. On Monday night I asked Kim where her passport was because the only one I could find was expired. "I think that's the only one I have," she said calmly. Uh, I think that's a problem if we're leaving on Thursday morning. Controlled panic ensued. Thank the gods for the internet! Within thirty minutes it appeared that we could get her a passport in 24 hours. Many phone calls later she had an appointment scheduled with the US Passport Agency in Aurora. Although I was a little peeved, waiting for passport photos in the local Walgreens at 8 o'clock at night, it all turned out OK. She had her appointment on Tuesday morning and confirmed her passport was in hand this morning around 11:30. That's right, she secured her passport just 20 hours before the flight. That's cutting it a little too close, even for me! However, now that we are ready to go, I can say it was a good learning experience. Heck, I might even find it funny someday.Baca selengkapnya
