East to West

Today was our travel day.

Our flight didn't actually leave home until 5:00 p.m., so we had much of the day to get things done. We even went over to Michael's parents' for a while to see his sister and our nephews, who had driven in for a visit.

The flights were on time and uneventful, which was nice. We landed in Seattle at around 9:30 p.m., which was after midnight "our" time. Unfortunately, the rental car line was ridiculously long, and then we got caught in some ridiculous traffic. Just what we were looking forward to after long flights, right?

But of course, we eventually made it, and Christy and Mike (our lovely hosts here in Seattle!) were kind enough to have wine, crackers, and cheese waiting for us. It was nice to kick back, relax, and catch up with them a little bit instead of heading straight to bed.

We're excited about our time in Seattle!
