Morning Crazies,<br />Sorry I didn&#39;t check in after we arrived in LA yesterday but it was pretty hectic.  We took the Super Shuttle to San Pedro from the airport (I would recommend it) and met 2 couples that have been to South Africa and wanted to return to we chatted non stop.<br />After check in we met with 2 Californian couples who are staying here at the Doubletree San Pedro (great hotel) as well and had drinks with them.  We then went to 22nd St Landing for dinner and I had Chioppino (sp?) I am such a seafood lover.<br /><br />It is 5:45 am here now and I&#39;ve been awake since 4:45 - I guess my body clock is all screwed up&#33;  Sorry to hear that some crazies had bad weather yesterday.  We flew from Tampa to St. Louis then to Denver then to LA and had perfect weather for the entire trip.  It was really neat flying over the Grand Canyon, I really makes one appreciate it&#39;s size... wow&#33;<br /><br />Falina - here&#39;s cross fingers that you get a positive response from your bank at the beginning of the week and hopefully you can get that washing machine fixed too&#33;  (((HUGS)))<br /><br />Kevin - hey send your friends over here to join us on this cruise - some pretty awesome abs there.<br /><br />Now I&#39;m going to make some Wolfgang Puck coffee with complimentary chocolate chip cookies for Tony - then we&#39;ll mosey off down to breakfast and get ready for the 10:00 shuttle to the ship.<br /><br />You all be good now - I will try and check in along the way......
