G home safe

Thanks for the emails, guys ! G is home safe and sound. He flew in on the only flight he could get Saturday night, into Orlando. So, yes, after a full day at work the doggie and I loaded in the car to drive to Orlando to pick up G. His London flight got in three hours late, so he missed his connection.

G's stories of the chaos that was London's Heathrow were quite amazing. FIVE HOURS to get through secruity. The only reason he made it through was because the United gate agents were pulling people out of line or they'd miss their flights. He said the security line for his terminal stretched for more than 3 MILES. Keep in mind, these people had nothing on them. They were all being hand patted down, wanded, and xrayed. Then, a nine hour flight with nothing to do but watch the in-flight movies.

We arrived home from Orlando at 115am. Total travel time for G, 23 hours. He was a zombie.

I'm glad he got home safely. He wisely took Monday off to relax. (he's got more than enough time off for holidays) He flew out this morning to go back to Houston. At least in Houston he'll have cable and internet. This will make him happy. Although, the 67 degree weather in England would have felt like heaven to me right now.
