safe and sound at home!

Drive to airport with my mother was great - we end up talking a lot in the car, and its good for us both.

Flight was not bad, tho there were small children pushing my seat the whole time - one drawback of the Virgin flights is that many of the onboard Red items can be accessed by the handset or by the touch screen, and if you arent careful, touching the touchscreen will move the seat in front of you. Kids arent always careful, but its hard to be upset at them.

Arrived and picked up by whipartist  - huzzah! it was awesome to have a friendly face at the airport. (thanks again!!!)

We dropped off my stuff and headed over to Chez Maman. I was desperate for French Onion Soup and a glass of red wine. We had drinks at Lingba, and got into Chez Maman just as byronium  arrived, run out of steam from the death cab for cutie concert I had missed arriving at such an annoying time on Saturday. (you have no idea how glad I was to see his sweet face.)

I got to see a tiny corner of the awesome rainbow everyone else had seen on Saturday night, while landing, I was looking out the window... Thanks, SF for welcoming me home!!!
