Darn, and we went and got a Cornhusker nanny who speaks no Spanish. What were we thinking?

It is something like a $5 local cab, I believe.

Better a Sisyphean hope than a Phyrric victory like Manny's.

Oh thats a good deal. I am still undecided if we are going to take the flight from the city airport or take the ferry.

AA offered me a buy-up to F, $135 EWR-MIA and $100 MIA-BZE. If I was traveling alone, I might have done it, but for almost $500 for two, I passed on the offer, I will remain in my row with no window. I selected row 13 on the 757 without checking seatguru. :rolleyes:

I was supposed to weigh in on the watch deal, sorry.

I second the vote for a Swiss Army. They've gone upmarket of late, but you should be able to find something nice in your price range. For something more fun, look at the Ice watches.

Supposed to be in SAN, but am still here in PHL. PHL airport was a mess this evening. Weather related delays. My incoming flight was diverted to Pittsburgh which meant my flight to IAH was delayed by 2.5hrs, which then meant I would have missed by connection to SAN. I called and got myself onto the 5:35am PHL-IAH flight tomorrow morning, quick 2hr turn in SAN and back again on 12:35PM flight out of SAN-IAH then on to PHL on the 6:55PM flight.

This MR takes me to PLAT - yay!


Was ticked off because I had booked the Sheraton Marina hotel via Hotels.com and managed to get a $89 rate - cool! But, it was prepaid, so I thought I was going to have to eat it because the policy was no refunds if cancelled within 24 hrs. Got on the phone to Hotels.com and they agreed to refund me the cost even though the Sheraton wouldn't refund it. Was inmpressed with their customer service.

Now I'm at a stinky Days Inn in Chester, PA and have to get up at 3:30AM. Meh!

Tis a shame; it was very warm today which makes a really nice evening down on the bay. Instead, if you enjoy good beer, make sure you visit the Karl Strauss Brewery stand across the hall from the CO gates next to security. Mmm...beer...

My mom flew FCO-EWR on sunday and said this sort of Primi Dish that CO served in BF before the main course was amazing :

ITALIAN TEMPTATIONS and warm breads

Cannelloni pasta filled with ricotta cheese, artichoke and spinach,
accented by a tomato and fresh mushroom sauce

Ricotta cheese gnocchi, accompanied by caramelized onions
and sun-dried tomatoes, served over Gorgonzola cheese sauce

Open pea pod shaped pasta with pesto sauce, roasted cherry
tomatoes, toasted pine nuts and grated Parmesan cheese

Freshly grated Parmesan cheese and chile-flavored extra virgin
olive oil are available

Freshly baked garlic bread and assorted rolls with butter
