Day One - Travel

Hanging out at the Red Carpet lounge in Terminal C. Check in was easy; Greenie's bag o' marbles weighed in at 59.1 lbs, well within the 70lb mark. Next year we can stuff the bags even more!

Went to the library this morning and got a copy of Black Gold of the Sun by Ekow Eshun, a British author of Ghanaian descent. The description reminds me of Little Bee.

Here's a book review of that one: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/05/17/books/review/Elkins-t.html
