Al's Adventures

Al loves flying business class- as far as he is concerned it is FIRST CLASS!

It starts out with champagne in the Lounge. Any time he can get into the lounge he does. This time we got in on a legitimate business class ticket, and not charm or the use of a friends and family pass. The lounge is always the most civilized part of the airport and a reprieve from the chaos beyond the gatekeepers.

Al has a special carry on pocket so he can see what is happening as we board the plane. He likes to get on early and plan is trip.....

What to eat....

What games to play....

And what movies to watch.

He likes the window seat so he can look out the window

And is a little embarrassed to admit that the plane food was actually pretty good (it was business class after all)

Al especially appreciated the lagniappe that KLM provides to their world business travelers- a little delft house with a sip of Genever inside. It began as a tradition in the 1950's. to provide the last drink of the flight that continues today.

Al is petitioning to always travel business class internationally from now on.

Martie has not had much time to get used to living in Pennsylvania
As soon as he moved to Landenberg
he was put to work- sorting
to prepare for the move to Virginia

He was able to carve out some time
to hang with his Peeps

His big concern is that he will still be able to find his favorite snack,
Smarties (a.k.a. martie's.smarties)
once he gets to Richmond so he has been tucking them away in some of the moving boxes

Tripod is making a home in Williamsburg Virginia-

He spends time reading

But he especially loves to pack his suitcase and go adventuring (he gets that from Al)

Tripod's favorite part of traveling is coming home to his friends

And sleeping in his own bed

Where he can dream about where he is going to go next!

Hi Al!
I just got caught by Lauren!! I was trying to steal some marshmallows and she caught me. I need to learn how to be sneaky. I am loving my new home. She made a bed for me and a little house. It is very fun. The dog, Tucker, seems to like me, but I am a little scared of him. He licked me right on my ear. Well, I am off to try to find some more marshmallows.
Have fun!

Al! 2 words...Spring Break! My family took me to Florida for some phenomenon called "Spring Break" and I gotta tell you Al, it was great! We went to the beach or the pool every day. We relaxed A LOT! We saw manta rays, dolphins, shrimp and sharks. We went snorkeling. Here's a pic of me at the Gulf of Mexico. This pic was taken before my sunburn. Who knew Monsters needed sunscreen! I'm thinking this might be a yearly thing, this Spring Break. Wish you were here....really. Tell Mini Marvin I'm thinking about him too!

Monsters Forever!
