Well faithful readers, it is day one on Amy & Lori's California adventure. As usual, the day was filled with fun and excitement. It started out with the Highway 47 ramp being closed when I went to pick up Amy. We then took JJ to bypass the traffic on 41 and to get to the airport on time. We made it but our 12:05 flight didn't leave until after 1:00 because President Obama was in Minneapolis and Air Force One commandered the airport. We finally took off and were about to land when the President decided to leave early and we were put in a holding pattern and flew around and around and around and around and around and around the airport. We were about to fly to Eau Claire to refuel when suddenly we were allowed to land. We headed to our favorite Chinese restaurant where we had some lovely noodles and rangoon. We were then off to explore the airport. First stop was visiting Norwegian Land. Amy looks good as a blonde but I could use a shave.We have officially changed our names to Lars and Helga. We want to fit in. Uff Da!
Amy and I then signed up for flight lessons. We did have a few hours to spare. We quickly earned our diplomas and were put to work right away. 
Amy was assigned a quick flight to St. Paul and I was to help her taxi. It didn't work so well.
We then ran into a giant moose. Amy was dignified and I got a little too friendly.
Our flight took off on time and we finally made it to San Jose. We got our rental car and tried to find our hotel. It took us a few tries but we found it. Because we are on vacation, we are staying up until midnight and sleeping in. (Midnight Wisconsin time, not midnight California time) Well, dear readers, it is late and we have a lot of adventures awaiting us. Tomorrow we attempt to make it to the cabin. Our plan is to stop at any sign that says pie or whale or fudge or chocolate or beer. We may not make it there for a few days. Wish us luck!
