1st Leg

Wednesday, May 28, 2008.

Ariel and I started the first leg of our journey to Italy and Greece.  After very little sleep Tuesday night, we got up first thing in the morning to take care of any last minute items and break down the computer.  Oh yeah, on top of all the projects, work-related projects, and preparing for the trip, we got notice the property finally sold and we would need to move @ the end of the month, while being gone.  Thank goodness for Skeeter or else I’m not sure what we would have done!  So in the midst of all that, we had to pack the house and find a place to live, but that is a completely different story.
Off we went to the airport, where we followed standard protocol, got on the plane after waiting some time, stopped in Honolulu, walked over to the international terminal, and waited some more, until we finally got on the plane to Las Vegas. The flight arrived in around 11:30 p.m. and by the time we got picked up and back to my Mom’s, it was nearly midnight. We ended up with one and a half hours of sleep before leaving for the airport to continue our journey.
