California Coast
Flew out of Cali today. LAX is a zoo. We left the hotel at 5:30am to get there for a 10:30am flight. We had to beat the traffic. Of course it rained. This travelling thing is really taxing. I don't understand how guys, even the players do this. I have worked at least 30 out of the last 31 days. Donna has been taking care of Mckenna and the house while I have been out traipsing accross the country following a hockey team. Living in hotels, eating out, working long days, and drinking beer has taken it's toll.
ONe thing that has been really hard is not being able to watch Trailer Park Boys on sundays. That sucks.
ON this flght since we had to book it late we flew first class. That was the only seats left. Man, I had no idea what I was missing. Really, if the common folk knew this there would really be problems.
Part of flying first class gets you into the VIP club. Now this is the first time I have ever been in one of these things, and it kinda made me a bit uneasy. On the magazine rack were books with titles like Money, Privelidge, and Executive. It was real quiet. There were no TV's and free internet. Leather seats, a big bar, and a veggie buffet. BUT once I saw the fridges, I was sold. All the booze and drinks you can pound into you, FREE. That's right, I said it, FREE.
My first thought was that if the common people see this, how the other half lives, there is going to be a class war, a revolt, but once I saw the free booze, I did not care anymore.
I jumped right in with both feet and started pounding them into me. Nice thing to do since Air Canada has basically put our trip to a standstill.
Jordi watched a movie and I pounded a few down. Long day turned into not so long. I really want to travel first class again.
Oh yeah in Vancouver we had to stand in line for about and 45 minutes to clear customs. Look at all those people. Man, what were we thinking. No wonder I needed a drink.
