back on track
Man, it's been too long since I have blogged. I tried to start one before I left for PA, but the stupid thing crapped on me. Oh well. I was going to comment on the crazy events going on within the news. But, its already 10:30 p.m. est and I am tired. I gripe at the other bloggers I read for not blogging after a couple of days, so I also felt obligated to get back in here.
The kids did great on their plane ride. Both were excited and after we were above the clouds the gameboys came on.
Basically the week went as follows.
We had the extermco guy come and do his thing Thursday around 11 a.m He showed up around 10:30 a.m. The guy really soaked everything down with the poison. The more the better, is what I say. Kel and the kids went out when he started to be away from it. She took them to watch 'Shark Boy and Lava Girl'. I had no desire anyway. After hearing my wife would rather have a bullet than to watch it again or when she is pissed at me, I would have to see it over and over again, I am glad I didn't. Evidently the kids liked it but my wife kept looking at the watch. I stayed in the office to finish up my 'have to' stuff with work before I grew a headache with the fumes. I took off and ran to Fort Smith for a bit.
We left as soon as Kel and the kids arrived home. We drove to Dallas getting there Thursday night. This allowed us to get in the Airport early for our flight Friday morning. We got turned around more than once and it took us a bit to get to the hotel. Once there, we found we were able to park the van there for less than 3 bucks a day. This is far less than expected. They shuttled us over and will shuttle us back when we return. Yes, honey, I am sorry for the crazy drive there.
We hit the airport earlier than needed. But oh well, it's better to get there early than late. This was the first time I used Air USA. I normally take America Airlines out of Fort Smith. We drove to Dallas purposely so we didnt have to take on 2 flights (Fort Smith and Dallas to PA)with the kids. Just a flight to and from on one plane for us.
We are staying at Hampton Inn in King of Prussia. Again, it's different for me in this regard too. I normally stay at Mainstay. I am happy with this hotel so far. Evidently on the weeknights (mon-thur) they provide free drinks and a meal in the evenings. I look forward to seeing if its any good. If so, I will stay here from now on.
We also hit the Green Dragon the same night we arrived in King of Prussia. It was closing down by the time we arrived. We was able to grab some fruit for the week and had some food on the way back to the hotel.
I had a hard time getting to sleep and when I did, the hotel's fire alarm went off around 1:30 a.m. Evidently the lobby's microwave threw a circuit.
Saturday we went to the Central Philly and rode the ducks while they explained the history of the area. It was cool.
We then walked King of Prussia Mall this afternoon. A very eventful 48 hours.
