First night

So everthing was pretty easy to find. The hotel was close to the airport, got a nice room, ate at the bar (the only food available in the hotel).

I went to a "Toys and Games" session and bowled a game on the Wii with a woman with my surname. We talked a bit about that. I also played "Dance, Dance Revolution" and was horrible. I will have to practice on Addy's! There were some board games there as well as the I-Pad, and some of the e-book readers, Kindle, etc. Okay, the I-Pad really made the the e-book readers look primative. The I-Pad is totally wireless--you can only load software or programs with a wireless network or BlueTooth. It has no usb ports and no media slots. Very interesting. Still too much money!

Preparation for trip and the flights

ok, I was going to do the wash and pack leisurely on Saturday, but I ended up visiting with my son and granddaughter in the morning, and going to a roller-skating risk after! I actually roller skating for the first time in many (too many) years!



So I had to rush around to get everything packed into as small a suitcase as I could carry on, plus take the laptop I borrowed from IT. Got up at 5am, dressed and went to the airport.

The flight(s) were fine--well seats on the US Air flights were so small, and I am not small and both times I sat next to a larger person than myself.--it was hard to get comfortable.
