Back to life…back to reality!
... madhouse due to the weather delays. I think I managed to sleep about five hours and then got up...and got on another plane to Tampa. I actually managed to make it into the office for my meeting, but by 4 I was about to die. Dad picked me ...
leaving on a jet plane...
So, I have been counting down the weeks(OK, maybe days) until my departure for about six months now. I was so busy finishing up the semester (with a 4.0, thank you very much) that I did almost nothing to prepare myself for leaving the country for almost ...
There's No Place Like Home
... , he put it into the garbage. He was not happy about this at all. We made it to the gate for our flight to Tampa. We had to wait for an hour or more. We watched the news and read the newspaper to catch up on what had been going on ...
Friends, Family, Food and Baseball
... I couldn't help feeling like I had been there before (do you remember if we went there during that Purchasing Conference in Tampa, Jeff Samp?). Anyway, the Columbia is well-known for their Cuban sandwiches. Donna and I ordered one and ...

Busch Gardens
Spent the day at Busch Gardens today. Not too many people there so we were able to get on the rides at least twice! Too awesome. My favorites were the Kumba and Montu. Montu is like the longer version of the Batman ride in Great ...
Wrapping it up...
... considered, after 17 flights, this is the best one for this to have happened on, though. Dart and I had a grumpy drink at the Tampa airport waiting for the next flight from Atlanta, which we were told held all four of our bags. We were told this by an ...
Two days to play in Florida
... SR-60 but SR-60 went right. A quick turn around and we were back on the right road but the freeways around Tampa Airport are a maze. It took me three tries to understand how the interchanges worked. The second time was a quick trip to ...
wir haben unserem Ruf alle Ehre gemacht ;)
Das waren aufjedenfall ein paar sehr lustige Tage ;-) Wir haben einige Coronas und andere alkoholische Getränke vernichtet, am Strand gechillt und gebräunt, uns mal wieder einige Male verfahren, Smoke on the Water auf der Gitarre gelernt (oder auch ...

Departure Day
Delta Song certainly has its advantages. I'm sitting on the plane between Tampa and New York playing trivia with the others on board. How funny! Anyway, Dad tried to wake me up at 6:15, this morning, yeah right. He obviously doesn't ...
Trip home
... over. It was a very short ride. The Edinburgh airport is quite a nice airport. Unlike the airports in the states, there are no loudspeaker announcements and no loud noises to make the airport crazy. We caught our flight out and the ...
Kung Fu Panda at the Channelside IMAX
All six of us drove up to Tampa in the van. We saw Kung Fu Panda at the Channelside IMAX, had some great Thai food at Thai Thani in the Channelside Plaza, then hopped over to Macdill AFB for some quick ...
Day 22-24
... amazing saltfish-in-a-plantain at the pretzel stand. That is going to be a must every time I leave St. Martin now. Tampa was just another work trip. The time not working was spent filling orders for Devin, Robenson, and Lyonel for ...
Rubber Ducky... You're the One!
Many years ago one of the kids had gotten a little rubber ducky and somehow it had ended up going on vacation to the Smoky Mountains with us. That year, we chronicled ducky's travels with us. There are videos of it "swimming" in the Little Pigeon River ...
