FLYING THE FRIENDLY SKIES

Thanks to our super son (the perfect child).....5 of our 7 Christmas holiday flights were upgraded.  If every one of my flights was like our San Francisco/Chicago leg.....I'd travel teach once a week till I'm 100!

We flew on United's refurbished 767 (generally used for international flights)....you can view photos of the amazing business class comfort here.  Among its many virtues, the iPod connectivity was swell.

This remote provides on-demand programming.....no kidding.....it was like having your own personal DVR with probably 50+ movies choices, sports, news, and selected TV programs.  I watched a movie PLUS 2 episodes of Gray's Anatomy.  The husband watched a movie and HBO's Entourage.

AND.....it's viewed on your very own 15" widescreen video monitor!



The seats can be adjusted horizontally, 180 degrees flat....plus so many other options that you never tire of just sitting in one position.  This was living!!!

Wow - the perfect child has grown up into the perfect man!
Seems like only yesterday he was playing soccer and you were a soccer Mom!

I have to ask, how did you get him to turn out perfect? Mine are 21 and 15, is it too late for me?
