SF D-Day

Today was travel day.

We made it to the airport in reasonable time and in reasonable health. I found long term right up front and only a few things were left behind.

  • Hygenie Kit for Juan
  • Poncho by Momma
The hop to Dallas was tight but uneventful. The flight to SF was incredible. The boys had seven feet of leg room and chairs that reclined all the way back. I mean lazy boy recliners. We had a combination of bulk head and exit row.

When we hit the ground it was a little chaotic and we were debating public transport or taxi. The taxi only cost 31.50 so that was a steal for a piece of mind. Our hotel is down in downtown and it is a bustle with activity.

This trying to feel out the kids. The youngest has a problem with listening and both children despite being world travelers are very sheltered. We were approaced twice by beggars just trying to get a meal at Burger King and I am feeling the stress of having now to watch over four people instead of just the two of us.

This will be a great test to see if I am going to be able to handle family vacations. This was definitely a big test. I don't know if I am going to get to enjoy this in my old fashion and I am also wondering if I am going to find the enjoyment of a family vacation before it is too late.

This is a test for me also I guess. To see if I can step up to be a family man.

Mountains surround and freaks abound. This is my type of city. It has something to it. A special spirit.

Good Travels.

If you are into the Easter thing. Happy Easter. If you are not, well Happy Plastic-Egghunting-Pastel-Wearing-Chocolate-Eating.
