6:20 in the morning and we are picked up by Haley, who will be attending to the house and being abused by the cat while we are gone. She whisked us to the airport and left us to our fate (Z did get a hug out of the deal.

We prechecked our tickets, so arriving at the airport, all that was left to do was check the bags. Since we will be throwing all of this into a car 15 hours from now for our trip to Hungary we tried to get things into the smallest number of bags possible. This, as it turns out, was not the greatest of plans. Two of our three bags, it seems were over weight. So for the price of a new bag (which we could have checked for free) we got our three bags onto the plane and made our way back for breakfast and to board our flight - where, following the Murphy's law of teachers, we got to have a brief chat with the CRHS Video Production students on the way to Nationals in Kansas City (Go Chiefs! - Nick, I want my metronome back!)

Into the air, where for an hour I had the worst sinus pain of my life before blowing a golf ball sized hunk of gook out of my nose. For what it's worth, pretty much everything is seven bucks on US Air now. Buy the drink at the airport. It really is cheaper!
