• When it rains, it pours!  Alex just called and as soon as I hung up from him, Charles called.  ;^)

  
  

  Turns out a MAC (military) flight is just the same as a regular commercial flight...big plane, couple of hundred people, meals served, etc.  Hannah was very good, staying in her seat the entire time, though requiring being entertained.  Alex said the real stressor was the two hour bus ride, as the bus was full and they were the last to board, having to hold Hannah during the trip to the base.  They arrived about 6 a.m.

  
  

  And they did go bowling that night. 

  
  

  It's 7 a.m. there now, and Alex said they'll be taken around to look at housing later on.

  
  

  He's says it's beautiful, he got to rehearse with the band yesterday, and everyone is terrific. 

  
  

  Could hardly hear Charles for all the background noise, for Manhattan's a noisy city, but he sounded fine and is going to get the shuttle to New London in a little while.

  
  

  At least the airplane rides are over!  That's always a good thing.
