Mel's Overseas Trip
Hi All,
Sorry I have not written in a very long time, but we have been very busy travelling all over the US and have found it difficult to find the internet.
We finally saw the Grand Canyon for 2 days, it was very spectacular. We decided not to hike to the bottom, because every year more than 250 people are rescued from the canyon not able to finish the hike. That would of been us being hauled out of the canyon on a mule!!!
The Green tortoise trip was a great experience, I met some really great people, but it is nice to have our own space again. Lucy and I have been in Las Vegas for the last week. We extended our stay to see 'O' a Cirqu du soleil show and to see Celine Dion Live in Concert. Both were well worth it, both shows had great dancing and were just so good they were unexplainable in words!!!!
We have today been up since 4 am to catch a flight from Las Vegas to L.A and then L.A to Dallas. Since all the terroist scares it has been a long day at the airports. We even got padded down in security and bags checked. We must look like criminals!!!
Very funny story in LAX airport: Lucy and I were trying to board a bus to take us to the next terminal, by this time my bag had broken in a number of places including a wheel falling off, so I was lugging around 60 pounds!!!! We stopped the bus to board and as you can imagine trying to haul 60 lbs up the stairs of a bus is not easy. In the process >I broke my thong and proceed to yell back to Lucy laughing ^^ Lucy I broke my THONG!!^^ evenyone on the bus thought it was very funny. Not till later did we realise people over here think a thong is a G string, so of course they thought it was very funny!!!!
Tomorrow we are busing for 9 hours to Memphis to see Graceland and then return to Dallas on the 15th to fly to Mexico on the 16th. Can't wait to lie on the beach in Cancun and relax for a few days.
Very tired at the moment!!!
Miss you all heaps.
Love Mel
