South Africa!

Our trip to South Africa has started a day early! That was kinda' good news/bad news! We ended up changing our flight out of Dallas on Monday morning to A DAY EARLIER (Sunday morning) because American Airlines was making us nervous with the report of cancelled flights and delayed take offs.  We couldn't afford to be delayed or have our flight cancelled at the last minute as we could very likely miss our international flight out of Washington, D.C. So, . . . THANK YOU VERY MUCH AMERICA AIRLINES, we had to get up at 4:30 a.m. and leave on Sunday morning at 7:10 a.m. :( The good news was we had a little extra time in D.C. so we went to the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum this afternoon. It was pretty cool to see some of the aircraft they had displayed there. Bob definitely enjoyed ALL of it; I was not as thrilled as Bob, but I did love seeing the space shuttle!!! It was displayed so impressively!!! It was very cool to see it sitting in the distance with the nose pointing right in at you when you entered the museum!
