BULA from Fiji!

Well we made it after a marathon of flights. The airport in Toronto was unpleasant, all line-ups trying to get into the US. Got frisked a few times ;-) !! We arrived 3 hours early and the flight was boarding when we made it thru! We made a friend from Toronto who goes to school in LA, so that was nice!

We spent the day in Los Angeles yesterday. It was nice, but there was no where to store our bags, so we were tired from carrying them. We went to a mall, and met some interesting folks along the way. One lady, the inspiration for the title, thought we needed to go to Sunday school. Another lady named Phyllis in the mall talked our ear off for a good hour, but it was nice to hear her chat. She was great company in an unfamiliar place... everyone she knows is a millionaire and got perfect on their SAT scores. haha. We also struck up a brief conversation with some guy that we like to call, tattoo arms Mc Sunglasses. He was impressed with our upcoming Fiji adventure.

Well, after missing an entire day, and a longer morning of waiting to check in (we saw the sunrise) we slept for a long time this morning, and are sitting in 34 degree weather! At least we're sitting in an internet cafe that they also store kegs in. Air conditioning is also a plus!

Its beautiful here. Keep fit, have fun, and let us know how you are!

... as crazy bus lady would say: "alright you galavanters, go to Sunday school"
