I was a special gift to my owner, on Valentines Day 1996 from someone very special. We are embarking on a bit of travel, so you will be able to follow our adventures and tales, as I keep this sort of diary for my owner. You could say this is my version of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales. Something to keep you amused while we are on our journey. Please add comments, we like to hear back from you.

Travel Day


Thursday May 10, 2007 Sunny Exp 97F Las Vegas to Dallas
Today head down to Dallas Texas. We made sure that there was plenty of time to get to the airport, clean socks for security checks, etc. Once there we find that there is a delay of about an hour on our flight. Even after making sure there was no coins in the pockets something was still setting the metal detector off. Maybe he did get a piercing at Venice Beach, but after a bit of wanding over the body we were free to continue. So sat back relaxed and watch the passing parade in the terminal, or you can play the slots. We were lucky as one other flight was being delayed over 2 hours due to blocked toilets. Someone on the flight to Las Vegas had blocked the toilets, and they had to fly from LA, some special equipment to remove the blockage. (When you see the size of some of the butts, you can see why they need special equipment)
Anyway the flight to Dallas was uneventful, except I had the window seat and had a good clear view of the Grand Canyon. There was even some rain when we landed, its the first bit of rain that we have had during our travels.
My owner's good friend Deborah met us at the airport, and we drove home to meet her lovely daughter Merryn for the first time. On my owner's last time here Merryn had not been born, but he has seen her grow up over the years with the photo and Christmas card each year.
