I've really been terrible with keeping up with my blogging this month! Anyways, I guess I'll finally tell you why we shouldn't have been on that plane last Wednesday. To put it succinctly, we were way too late to be able to board! On our drive back to St. Louis, we stopped in Hannibal to look around some of Mark Twain's childhood haunts. Well, mom took a little too long there, and the plane flight was 20 minutes earlier than we thought. So now we're two hours from take-off and 105 miles from the airport! Dad hightailed it on the highway, sometimes hitting 90 mph, but we got there with 40 minutes to go. We barely checked in on time and just squeaked in the checked luggage. There was a good possibility we wouldn't see them when we got to LAX. Dad returned the rental in record time and we all got onto the plane barely 10 minutes before they wanted to take off. We got to our connection in Denver with plenty of time, though, but the biggest surprise was landing in LAX and finding our luggage on the conveyor belt!
