hi guys, I made it to LA safe and sounds, the flight was long but ok, I got an exit row which i wwas pretty happy with, though i was sitting next to a rather large woman which made life very uncomfortble. The trip through immigrration was smooth too. I am now in the domestic erminal waiting for my flight to Detroit a whole 12 hours away... happy days!!! time for some lunch and sudoku!!! Hope everyone is well and I will be in touch soon! Love gregg
