We made it!

We took off from Nashville in the grips of the rainstorm and made it to LAX in four hours. Richard, Karyn, Erich and Charles met us for dinner in the "Encounter Lounge" at LAX - a true blast from the 60's - you have seen the building in all shots of LAX - Naugahyde and Lava Lamps. The flight over was on Air NZ newest plane a Boeing 777-300. A little cramped in economy for my taste, but a great ride.  It's summer here!  Will post some pictures when I get my batteries charged.
