So, what are the dates and on which of them will you be free so we can schedule the Box Mini-Do?

Tentatively 6/13-15, morning flight down with an after lunch flight home. The 14th is family night for the birthday. Night of the 13th works for me.

ALCO's epic failure part II
OH BTW NW WBC = EPIC FAIL FOR NO HOT BREAKFAST.
The party flight arrived and I marched with the group back to the CL. I was pleased to see despite having left 30 min ago, that my name for the shower had not been called. We got food which consisted of scrambled eggs and various cold meats and cheeses. I drank champagne NV, and contemplated stealing a bottle or four. I was with XYZZY, Dan, J.Ed, and we proceeded through Customs and immigration with no problems. We walked to the train station outside the airport and ALCO with his friends were handing out the most rancid beer on the planet. It was called "maximator" and it was 11.2 ABV. Personally, it wasn't drinkable at all and should have been called ":rolleyes: in a can." I went with ALCO when we arrived in the center of AMS to ummmm get a coffee at a local coffeeshop. After several hours of coffee and having fun with J.Eds phone we proceeded to the hotel where we met up with Rolov. |

I'll just miss you - I'm flying down to FLL 6/12-6/14. I will be attending a wedding over on Marco Island though, so no mini-DO for me. :(
You're flying into FLL for Marco? Picking up people to do the drive with? |

Poo. No golf either.

We're flying in to FLL because there are no late evening flights out of RSW on Sunday and I don't want to spend an extra night down there. The drive from FLL to Marco is under 2 hours, so I can't complain. It's a shame CO no longer flies to APF. |

That DPS trip would be awesome (especially the two A380 flights, including EK F), but I don't think I can swing the cash right now. :(

We have two days in Bangkok in June, continuing on to Phuket. Thinking of skipping Bangkok all together.. Not sure if Phuket would still be a risk.
I guess there is always the Maldives. |
Yet Another Reasons Why Monday's Suck
Mrs. MBM3 tripped over one of our dog gates and landed funny, dislocating her ankle while also breaking her tib and fib. It was an awful experience! She is home and resting while awaiting an appointment with a specialist. Luckily we were able to grab an appointment to see the head of the foot/ankle department of the Cleveland Clinic (thanks to a well placed referral from a friend).
Some :rolleyes: moments: 1) The admissions person asking for copayment minutes after we arrived and well before she was stabilized. Not only was it poor timing, but it gave the impression that they were not going to proceed without it. 2) Same admissions person questioning the fact that we have different last names. 3) I almost hurled while watching them set and wrap her leg. Thank god she was in dreamland for that experience. |

Start here.
I'm hoping to put together something that actually more resembles a travel guide at some point, but the major landmarks/highlights are all covered in that. The nighttime stuff will come in a post tomorrow. |

I hope she has been given copious amounts of hard-core painkillers to help her through this. I remember when my daughter had leg/foot/bone implant surgery a few years ago to correct some congential deformities. She was in excruciating pain for days, and it killed me to see her in so much pain and there was nothing I could do to help her. I really hope Mrs. MBM3 doesn't have to go through that. |

Yeah, no time for golf this time. I'm kind of :rolleyes: about the whole trip, but what can you do.

June 13th, somewhere in Broward or Palm Beach Counties. I hope this works out, as monitor is quite high on my list of as yet unmet FTers. :D
Oh, cool! Yes! I like that idea! |
