Manda,
My wife has been telling me about this thread for weeks. I've finally read it over the past two days and absolutely enjoyed every page, comments and all. You are an extremely talented writer and can really paint a picture with the written word. I had to laugh because as I started getting into it I was thinking this is a movie ... then a few posts later I saw it was being cast. If you do submit a screenplay to Hollywood, end it somewhere before you land in Toronto. You airport experience there was a real downer. What a shame you had to end a trip like that on such a sour note. I can tell from your writing that it really did not affect your positive vacation memories and that is how it should be.
Thank you again for a wonderful contribution to this forum.
Timm
