philly trip planned

I guess I find it a bit embarassing asking for holiday from my new employer when I don't even work there yet, but it was either last week or never. Tickets are going like hot cakes. So today, we got them booked! Sounds like a few more flights (6 in all) & red-eye specials and a special visit to Philly to at last see the cousins, grandma and maybe even bits of my own family for Christmas. I am over the moon! Already starting my shopping list ;)
