No Bust, We Made It

We arrived in LAX just a little later than expected. What an experience this morning, we pulled up at the Bloomington airport later than we planned, they were announcing 2 minutes left to check in for our flight and we still needed to get through security. They were loading as we made. It up the stairs. I don't want to go through that again, my heart can't take being late. The morning drive through falling snow made for slow driving. When' we arrived in Atlanta, the next plane was loading, they shuffled us off one plane and into the next without even a bathroom break. Good thing we packed sandwiches, the flight to LAX was almost 5 hours and they don't serve meals anymore. I took the camera out to snap some pictures as we were going over the mountains, then when we finally arrived at the very beautiful hotel the camera can't be found anywhere. It must have been left at the plane, bummer. The mountains behind the hotel are majestic, the fountains, plants, and big fish swimming around the pools inside are hotel are neat. Our room is gorgeous! It is a suite with an office area, small kitchen and living room furniture, the next room has a very comfortable king sized bed. It overlooks the fountian area, we are on the fourth floor, mom is up on the 5th, not sure where the rest of the choir members are staying. The hotel has a reception for us with free drinks and snacks but we just came back from eating at Red Lobster so are too full to enjoy that. Kathleen and Crystal Klopfenstein are here, we are waiting for Spark and Rhonda's group to pull in. The hotel was only 34 miles from the airport but it took almost 2 hours to drive that distance in this traffic. And to think, people live here on purpose!
Karin sent a text that Steven fed all the horses. Thanks Steven! Glad to know they are all taken care of. We got an email from the lady in charge of scheduling the coliseum wanting to know if we wanted to reserve practice time. Of course she was told YES!
