PUERYTO VALLARTA again

We made it here in one piece but it was touch and go for a while.  April and I did not get out of the house when we had planned so we arrived late at the airport.  This could have meant the loss of our seats due to lateness!!  We managed to get through the ticketing part ok and the person on that desk said we would make it to the flight.

GREAT!!!

But wait.... after we removed our shoes and our luggage went through the xray, my luggage was searched.  It looked like a knife they said...  but it was only my spoon that has been on my travels since I started to travel.  Whew!!!  dodged that bullet.  Next to the customs lineup.  This is so long we are hanging out in the lobby until more people are put through.  How to you say BAAAAA!  Felt like sheep.

Finally got throught there and it was time for the plane to take off but our gate was at the FAR end of the row.  I ran ahead to let them know we were coming and one of the guys got a wheelchair to go and get April.  By then she had caught up with me and we were told to just run for the plane and get into our seats.

The flight down to LAX was from hell!!!!  There was a two year old who screamed constantly all the way.  he did not want to be strapped into his seat, he wanted to run the aisles, and whenever he was told NO! he screamed that awful, high pitched scream that just shatters your being to the core...I hate LAX but this time it was wonderful to see the back of that family.  They went to Cabo and we continued to PV.   YEA!!!
