Saturday morning – in route

Friends..
    I’m not sure we’ll have time to post from LAX.. So I’ll try doing the blog today in installments. Diane got us all up around 5 this morning… another 4 hour sleep night.. ugh.. We were all moving pretty slowly.

 We got out of the house about 20 minutes later than we had planned. Chai was sitting there with her tail between her legs looking at us with those big sad eyes. At this point, she knows what’s up when the suitcases come out. We know she’ll be OK. there will be enough folks in the house while we’re gone to keep her happy.

    We got to the airport about 45 minutes before our flight.. but even so., it was a little too close for comfort. We slid into our seats just as the door was closing. The trip to Chicago was short and sweet. We had the same flight crew as the my flight from chicago last night… The flight attendand remember me and my seat mate Jim.. the guy with the ink yesterday. She told me he’d given him a free beer because he’d called her ‘babydoll’..and she thought it was nice.  Not sure I’d ever use that trick.. but hey.. it worked …

   Right now we’re hanging out in O’hare.. waiting for the flight to LAX.. we found a nice little cubby hole to camp out in..  We grabbed a bite.. and now we’re just hanging out..

I’ll send some more from LA.. Happy travels all.. happy travles Sam..

Quick update in-route.. We’re now  hanging out in the LA airport ready to board our flight. We just found out that the plane stops in Tokyo for an hour… Oh-boy.. another airport :-)… Flight out was pretty peaceful.. we watched harry portter and I worked on my email backlog.. I got about 400 emails behind in the last 4 days.. eeeeeek

OK.. time to fly.. TTYL….
