Busy holiday !

Sunday, December 17th, 2006

For this year holiday season we have a very tight schedule …

We first go see sarah’s grandma in alabama then get to georgia to visit sarah’s dad for christmas then come back to alabama to spend a bit more time with grandma and then fly back to davis.
Wait, it doesn’t end there! the next day we leave for seattle on a short road trip with Nikola and Ceca for new years’ eve and stay at sarah’s mom. So basically for the next 2 weeks we are going to cover sarah’s family all over US !
Well, we are leaving tonight at 4:30 am to catch a plane at 6am to get to the south, and we have 2 stops Denver and DC, it’s kindda weird that the cheapest flight are the longest (aren’t we using more fuel??).

Anyway, 6am on a sunday that should be against the law…stupid airlines…

Last week end, Alabama

Tuesday, October 17th, 2006

Sarah and I went to Ragland, Alabama to go see her grand parents this last week end. I am still amazed of the social contrast between California and over there. It definitively feels like an older country meaning the mentality and the habits of the people over there are much less flexible, a bit like in europe; you know, the real europe not the flashy large cities.

Anyway, we had a great time, Sarah’s grand-ma is definitively the cuttest ever. On sunday night we were all sitting at the kitchen table with Sarah’s mom, Alan and the grand parents. After her grand-pa showed us his WWII souvenirs and things they started telling us about how they both met so we got to hear the whole romantic story - exactly like in “Harry met Sally” - it was so funny.

I’ll post a couple of pictures.
