Last Friday, Eliot and I finally applied for our passports. We both had them when we were younger, but they expired and we didn't renew them. We've been planning to forever, but we never did it because we hadn't absolutely needed them.
With all of our past Disney cruises, you didn't need to have a passport- although it it was recommended. (I've been thinking we needed to get them before we took another cruise- just in case of an emergency.) We're also wanting to do an Alaskan cruise someday, so we'll need a passport to get into Canada. Plus, we've talked about going to see some San Jose Sharks games over the border... so both of us finally getting our passports and passport cards was definitely on our radar.
Last Friday, we filled out our passport applications. (Naturally, I gave my Olaf pen the honor of helping me fill out mine.) At 1:00 PM we went to the Gorham post office for our appointment. It was very quick, and before I knew it our paperwork was ready, our photos were taken and everything was stapled and ready to be sent out!
Early yesterday morning, we got emails that our paperwork and applications had been received. They were in process with everything being reviewed.
This afternoon, both Eliot and I got the emails that they had been processed and were getting mailed out! I was surprised considering we literally sent them in last Friday... only 6 days ago! We paid extra for rush service... but I don't think either of us expected this quick of a turnaround. Still, it's a relief to know they'll be in our possession soon!
So by next week, we're officially going to have our passports to adventure!!! ✈️
