Well, what can I say.... I landed in Seattle and then flew to Minneapolis, Minnesota, where I stayed with some friends for several days. During the day it was minus 4 Celsius out of the wind and as low as minus 10 in the wind. So, yeah, it was cold!!!
But I got to see the biggest Mall in the States (Yeeeeehaaaa!?!?!), the Mall of America. I bought a pair if jeans and a suitcase..... its obvious why I would buy a pair of pants ... but why a suitcase?... Well, the story is that I mucked up when I last closed my $280 USD suitcase in Australia before driving to the airport, and so when I arrived in Minneapolis at 6:00 am and wanted so badly to have a shower and a change of clothes..... guess what?!?.... I could not open my beloved suitcase. Three young strong men had a go at it and it would just not open... damn good locking system!!! So we ended up having to literally hack the thing open and open it like a can or sardines. Ha! So that is why I had to buy a new suitcase.... found a super deal for a Wenger Swiss Suitcase at 68 USD.
I went snow-shoeing and also did some Archery. Twas all very fun...
So then after my visit there I flew back to Seattle and caught a 2-prop plane to Spokane. That was a very interesting 1-hour flight -- ha! Got to Spokane and was picked up shortly after having gotten my baggage. Then, after 2 nights of sleeping with my head under a window (really smart, Zeth), I got a head cold and fought it off for about 3 days .... and I am still fighting it as I am writing this....
So I'll go now and maybe write something more later...
LOADS of love to my Mooch (XXX), Raymond and Leona....
and love to all the in-Laws too....
