We’ll be going back home for vacation next month and one of my concerns is our mode of transportation. We will definitely go out a lot to meet family and friends, go shopping, even go out of town and all that requires hours of driving. We have cars we can use, my husband’s and my parents and both are in good condition and doesn’t require Los Angeles auto repair at all. The problem we are facing is finding a driver to drive us around, you see my husband’s driver’s license expired a few years back and since we don’t have a car here it didn’t occur to us that he needs apply for an international driver’s license until it was too late. It takes about two months to process the license since his old one is expired he needs to take the test and do all the paperwork. We simply don’t have enough time.
Gone is the idea of driving a Ford Explorer to Pangasinan to visit his aunts, we are now scrabbling to find someone who would be wiling to be our driver for our whole vacation. Everyone has a job and with he exception of my dad who would also have things to do on his vacation from work no else is available. I would love to go to Tagaytay and let my little girl see Taal volcano again, the last time she was there she was three months old and I don’t think she even remember that.
The good thing though about my husband not being able to drive is that he can be on the passenger seat just like us and not get so tired. He won’t even have to worry about he head gasket or the other drivers since he won’t be the one behind the wheels. I know how tiring it can be for him to drive for hours at a time. So this time he will truly be on vacation too.
