Fiasco Returning to LA
Mommy's corner: When we arrived at airport, it was super COLD! For some reason, my dad thought it would be best to do curbside check-in. Personally, I would have preferred to just check-in inside where it would have been warmer & not that much more work to get inside. Not to mention the fact that we had to tip the porter for not doing all that much to help us!
When Nicole & I arrived at LAX, I began the arduous task of searching for our luggage. After realizing that I didn't have the claim tickets for our luggage, arguing with the airline that we had checked in 5 items, not 4, being informed that our luggage had not arrived yet, & several more misdirections, I stumbled onto the holding area where I SAW Nicole's car seat! After searching for a few more minutes, I located the other carseat, our luggage, and Chris' precious golf clubs - phew! What a relief. I'm sure Chris would have been really upset if anything happened to his golf clubs. We had already gone through another experience at LAX where some people were trying to steal Nicole's car seat, but Chris caught them just in time! So God really protected our belongings & we are so grateful.
While I was working things out with the airline regarding our luggage, praise God that Uncle Stephen arrived & was able to watch Nicole & allow her to run around & stretch her legs after 2 long flights. After retrieving our luggage, we even had time to go out to McDonald's for Nicole's 2nd round of french fries before Chris & Jason's flight arrived. Needless to say, we were all supremely relieved to reunite & return home after a long, tiring, stressful day at all the various airports.
