I just found out that we are eligible for early boarding on the flight.
This will help you to get your carry on in the plane without being knocked over by the crowd... LOL..
Ask the flight attendant to put your bag in the overhead.
You can arrange for this at the desk when you check in for your flight.

Amy, this is my 1st camp too and I will be alone too so we will help each other, OK??!! I just found UBPN and a name for what we have in April of 2004. This is also the very 1st time I'll be taking a trip alone that can be called a vacation and I am READY for it!
See you in 15 days,Amy.
Hugs all around,

PS...Kath, how come I don't know the secret handshake??I don't understand...but I love you anyway!

how big of a bag can you carry on? I would rather not have to deal with baggage claim.
Thanks,
Amy

if you go to the airline's website, they ususally tell you the maximum size of carry on luggage.
I don't know by heart...just know mine works )

I am so excited to come to camp and I cannot believe that it is only 2 weeks away. I started school yesterday and one of my instructors was not so nice when I said I would be missing 3 days of her class. Her reply actually was "No one ever goes to a conference in the summer, always when school starts." I wasn't going to stand for that comment, so I told her exactly why I was going and she sure changed her tune. I was a bit proud of myself for sticking up for myself and everyone injured. I just hope I pass the class now. hehehe...see everyone soon.
I can't wait!!!

Rachel
Good for you!
When we learn more about our injury we are able to stand up to any negative comments.

As for passing the class, how about we write a "Thank You" note at the adult injured meeting?
We can all thank her for being so understanding and send her a patch from camp... think that's enough brownie points? lol

Kath

I wonder if I too will need the brownie points. I start class on the 6th and then I am missing 2 days for camp and another day the folloing week for another post surgery appointment. With all my splints I am wearing hopefully they will understand. I have not met my professors yet so I am a bit nervous.

Rachel, Way to go! As long as you do you work they should have no reason to not pass you. I hope that I can stand up to my professors if they pass a comment like that.

See you at camp!
