I don't envy you the flight Han. How long is it?

Jerry - we miss you - get to a computer!

Brenda, it will be nine hours to Chicago then another two hours into New Orleans. It's a lot easier coming back to Europe than going to the states. You usually leave the states at night, so it's easier to sleep. As long as I don't have a jacka** next to me that has to get up every 15 minutes I should be okay.

Just need ear plugs, pillow and eye cover.

We stayed at the airport which made it more civilized that morning, as we live 3 hours away, plus the three hour check-in. Made it across allright except for some loud a$$ behind us who wouldn't shut up and said the same stuff over and over again.

Sarah got flagged in imigration in Houston, which made it quite stressful as our connect flight was only 1.5 hours. I had liguids in my carry on as I bought duty free in London. So I had to check the carry on or lose the booze. Take a guess which way that went.

That held us up even more. So Colin and I are running through the airport. Sarah's somewhere in immigration and we get to the gate to find it's been changed, to the other side of the airport. Colin and I turn around and start back the other way.

Sarah comes scooting by us in a courtesy cart. Luckily I flag her down and we hop on. 2 hours later we're in NO

.

But the booze isn't......

Go figure....

Gotta love international flying. Everytime we fly back in from Canada, Denise always gets hung up at immigration.

I don't think you'll miss it in south Louisiana.

Absolutely!!

Although, it's an open bar right? So we'll have to buy him a drink afterwards.

Bless you Jerry - you deserve several drinks for that adventure. Since we can't buy you one at the reunion, we will buy you one wherever we go afterwards!

Well the good thing is, is that I now have a $160 picture of Colin at Tiger Stadium. Didn't see the game but got in to take the picture before the rain swept us away. I'm going to frame it along with the tickets to let Colin "remember" his first LSU game, or better word experience.

We did have a great day at Global Wildlife Park yesterday and had some awesome po-boys thanks to Madonna.

Did you go to the gift shop? James' mom works there part time. She retired from Bellsouth after 30 years and took a little fun job there to occupy her since she is still pretty young. I will have to ask her if she was working yesterday.

Here is the $160 picture and one from Global Wildlife.

I didn't miss a single play of a home game the 4 years I was at LSU...and unfortunately, there were serveral of those type games...but hey, the tarheels have better weather, but their football team stinks!

I think Glenn and the kids were at that same LSU game.
