... plane I thought I was heading the right direction. A service rep even told me I was. But I somehow ended up at the customs check -in area. I got my passport stamped and preceded to the checkout point. I informed them My checked luggage was going to Christchurch and that I somehow took a wrong turn. The customs officer told me my bags were not on the plane (I didn’t him) and proceeded to show me the 10 foot sign stating that bags ...

... Mel's mom had pumpkin pies with turkey shaped sugar cookies on top. Bill & I brought Ice cream which never got eaten, but will be saved for Dan & Mel's white elephant party.
After dinner Cyndi proceeded to explain the plan to exchange a computer at 4AM on Black Friday. At some point the converstion turned to poop and then to a discussion how one uses only two sheets of toilet paper for the purpose it was ...

... seemed to be about 15 crab for the trip, and they put them in the live well on the boat for later on in the trip. That evening, Geoff and I went over to Grandma's house to wait for Ron to come home with dinner. He brought us Subway, which we ate on the porch watching the ocean and different boats come in. Ron got some fishing done before bed, and we were all asleep by 10.

... bridge on I-5 (despite the sign prohibitting it) - NOT going to happen, so we worked around by carrying our bikes through a field, over a barbed wire fence and through a patch of stinging nettles before crossing over to the bridge that does NOT have cars going 60 miles an hour with no room to pass. Another lost a wallet and had to go back and scramble around town to find it (hence the lateness), with each pod piling up stories ...

... fine because the hour went fast but we sat on the ground for another hour before actually taking off. The end result was my flight landing two hours later. I was pretty tired but I was full of energy because I was home and would be seeing a few close friends in less than an hour and I was also in the same time zone as my family! I spend most of last week at PLU meeting with my professors, figuring out my housing for Spring semester, seeing friends off that are going to ...

... a guide (not really necessary) and most importantly a bus to safely store our bags during the game and a ride to the airport (also pricy). The atmosphere in the stadium was already electric an hour before kick-off. The reserve squads from both sides played 45 minutes of soccer, which the fans treated almost like a real game. Quilmes won 1-0, much to the delight of the small contingent of their fans in the highest seats on one side of the stadium ...

M: As we flew back into Seattle, I kept whining, it's over. We're all finished. The green of spring here rose up to meet us and I thought, it's back to real life, back to everything we left behind. But so much has changed. Seattle is different. The little bits of day-to-day living that none of us think of as being all that much different from one moment to the next make a difference. It's like being a visitor all over again only weirder because I supposedly live here ...

Day 29 This morning we woke up around six o'clock preparing to head towards Seattle, Washington. After breakfast we made our way to the showers which to our dismay failed to accommodate our big group. We quickly re-entered our buses and went to Church. We were a few minutes late so we joined the church congregation as quietly and respectfully as we possibly could. After Mass we were greeted with warm welcomes from the church community. Many of the people ...
