Traveling Soon?

We won a cruise from Scott's work. I don't remember if I had mentioned it. Anyway, so I have been gathering the things we need for the paperwork. We are going to Mexico, so we need some super identification to prove our citizenship. Apparently our cruise is one of the last ones that do NOT require a passport. Starting next year, a passport will be required. Meanwhile, I need a Government Certified Birth Certificate and a Driver's License. Unfortunately Daniel is too young to drive. Our Agent said that was fine, but that we were lucky. Starting next year, even babies will need a passport.

Since it takes awhile, I suggest everyone goes and gets one. It can take up to 6 months to get a passport, and that is sometimes even with paying extra for them to go faster. So, just in case you win a cruise, you should get one now. If we had won a cruise next year, Daniel and I would be out of luck. There just isn't enough time to get a passport between now and october.
