The excitement this morning in the Essen house was unescapable. The last minute chores, the last minute decision on what to wear, and then finally zipping the suitcase for the final time brought the start of our journey closer. Andrew arrived and with a 'goodbye' to the cats we where on the road. The reality of being gone for three weeks still has not set in. No worries though for adventure will fill the time all too quickly.
Currently we are flying toward Los Angles where we hope to meet up with friends Steve and Raelene. They are visiting their daughter Kristen and her husband Pete in Long Beach. Our first flight was wonderful and the most smooth landing I have experienced.
We did meet with Steve, Raelene, and Kristen and had lunch at Whole Foods. It was so great to see them and share time together. We are now at the LA airport waiting for the next leg that will be a 13 hour flight. We are thinking of you Dennis and Regina!

We have arrived actually a little early, about 5 AM. We finally figured out where to get our rental car only to find out there are none here and it will be a hour wait. I guess that is what happens when one goes for the bargin price.
It looks like it has rained recently but the temp is in the high 60's. Yeah!
