22/365: Champagne

Into our second leg of about a 48 hour flight to Africa. I'm helping my 80 year old mother fulfill her bucket list to go on Safari. I convinced her we should splash out and go First Class/Business Class. My rational was that it would be safer and more comfortable for an octogenarian with two artificial knees. My ulterior motive is that I knew I'd need a lot of alcohol to get my mother through three trips through customs and onto three flights.

5/365: International Celebrity

As we endured delay after delay and finally found out our flight home was cancelled, at least we had a celebrity sighting to cheer us. SANTA!!!!!!! Clearly enjoying a vacation in Cabo San Lucas after a tough holiday season.

The story here.

This is Alison and Sarah, our friends' kids whom we've known all their lives. They are in their twenties now and were part of our group on the Cabo San Lucas vacation. They were horsing around in the pool under a little decorative waterfall trying to get out of the almost invisible water box.

Usually I find Mimes quite creepy, but not in this case.
