Hey everyone!! How was your Thanksgiving?
Personally, I had a bunch of fun. My mom just bought a new place about 30minutes southeast of Palm Springs and I went to visit her. My uncle just got remarried, so we had a reunion and a union(new people from the other side of the family) of sorts. All three of my uncles, all of my cousins from those three uncles(6 in total), my mom, myself, my mom's boyfriend, his son, my grandmother, my new aunt and her whole family too. We had to have about 40 people there. I've never been involved in such a huge Thanksgiving. It was quite a spectacle.
Afterwards I got to go back to LA area to get my plane. Beforehand, I went around to all the LFS's near the beach and found one in particular that was really nice. I bought a couple corals with the worry about bringing them on the plane...more than 3oz of liquid in the bags. I was prepared to be shut down and have to go wrap the in the bathroom to do a moist paper towel method; they did not make me do so. They just swiped them with a swab to make sure they weren't chemicals or bomb fluid or whatever they are checking for. After it cleared they let me on through. Thanks LAX security for being understanding. All-in-all, it was long flights, but the whole process went very smoothly. Nice quiet non-stop flights, little traffic on the roads, little traffic in the airports, absolutely beautiful weather, off of work since Monday(although that will hurt for the next month). What a great holiday it turned out to be.
So how'd you guys fare?
