Hopefully I'll be there in December.
I love cornbeef hash. I have been smoking a corned beef - for eight hours on the grille, then letting it cool, and making cornbeef hash (all home made) in the morning, with some onions - MMmmmmm mmmm good! You certainly know how to make breakfast!

All though grilled hamburger and eggs are good too Mr. Sunshine! Maybe gradmaillie can teach you to clean the house. Then you will make someone a good wife!

they use 747s into Orlando -which is the route we use.

on the occasions we go in via Miami they fly Airbus 330s which are ultra quiet but you dont get the peace like you do upstairs on the jumbos

Hopefully Direct Air gets the Virgin planes back by then! Those were a lot nicer than the 80s junk they are flying right now. But, for $75/each way I can't complain

I can't believe they just let you wander around on the plane by yourself! Mrs.S must have a special leash for you. After a long flight like that is there any beer / wine / or scotch left on the plane? I bet your carry-on is a huge liquor cabinet. Lucky thing, by the time you get here, there is nothing for you to declare.

Have a great flight! Yah know the last thing I did, before closing up the house was stock the fridge with beer, and the liquor cabinets are all full. The party is on when we hit the front door!
