Hello from LA

Mad Crazy Day today!

Our flight with Air Canada was originally scheduled to leave at 8:30, so we got up around 4:30, just to finish packing up, and return the car to get to the airport by 6:30. After Jason got up and took his shower he decided to confirm our flight. Our flight didnt exist, there was no 8:30 am flight to Toronto. He went back to the original confirmation number and checked it with AC. They changed the flight to 6:45 am... WTF??? It's now 5:45, i literally just got out of the shower, and the kids are still sleeping! Lemme tell ya we moved super fast, our flight is leaving in 1 hour, and we're still in our hotel, maybe 20 minutes away from the airport! We called the porter right away, got him to get our car and bags. The kids got up super fast, and we out of the hotel in about 5 minutes. I was sure we were gonna miss our flight, but Jason said no worries, lol. We arrived at avis about 15 minutes later, dropped off the car, and hopped on the shuttle. The shuttle did our stop first, thank god, and when we arrived at the checkin line we got whisked right to the front!, bypassing about 50 unhappy people lol. We get our seats assigned, and now we have to drag our 9 pieces of checkin baggage to the xray machine. Low and behold we get whisked past another 50 or so people there! woohoo we're on a roll lol. Then comes the personal security checks, and we bypass that line! We're pretty lucky that in LAX after you check in your bags it's only a 2 minute walk to the departure gate, so we didnt have very far to go. At the end of it, we were at the departure gate at 6:40, 5 minutes before our flight was scheduled to leave (it was delayed 20 minutes though) All is well again!!! We even had time to call our limo company in Canada to tell them about the change of arrival times!

The flight was fairly uneventful, and we really noticed the difference (lack of) service on Air Canada compared to our recent flights with Qantas, Air Pacific, and Air New Zealand.

We're Home now!
