Day 1

4:00 and day 1 is off to a start.

4:30 - get an email alerting us to the Lufthansa strike. Now in its 6th day, United wasn't the one who sent the message on the strike. Instead, it was the tour company. Lufthansa is our carrier between Munich and Cairo. Fingers crossed.

5:00 - arrive in the Boise Airport. Immediately succumb to the truth that my bag is not carry-on sized. Addie gets her bag pulled out in the security checkpoint. Wipe thingy shows a reaction. Addie gets pat down. Bag gone through again.

5:30 - Get to the gate as boarding is starting. Walk on tiny plane to discover Addie's carry-on doesn't really fit. Take some stuff out. Jam it in. Away we go!

A tired pair made it to LA. Some fun was had.

Highlights:
Visit to the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library.
Driving through the Santa Monica hills.
Beach and nap time at El Matador State Park.
Santa Monica pier to watch the sunset while riding the ferris wheel.

Tomorrow is an even earlier morning . Travel will be an entire day. Fingers crossed we don't get stuck in Munich, but if we do, I can imagine worse places to be stuck.
