I hope Pam is enjoying her travel. I was able to hang out with older American couples during the five-hour wait in Hongkong International Airport and from HKG to LAX, I was between two Filipinas. :lol: Never a dull moment.

:rolleyes: I remember how my ex-fiance (now husband) welcomed me at LAX in late evening last October. He was newly-bathed and newly-shaven. That night couldn't be any lovelier. The five-month wait all vanished when I saw him. It was the complete opposite of what happened when he left Mactan-Cebu International Airport last Philippine summer (I cried from the airport in spite of the crowd until I reached the city).

BTW, prepare her a towel, too. :star: But really, even if you don't get anything ready, she wouldn't notice that. She has come here for you and only you she wants.

Enjoy, Charlie! Looks like someone's weekend has already started and it's just Tuesday.

You must be very excited :dance: I remember when Claudeth came, I had a web site that tracked the flight of her plane so I was watching the progress all the time. My head was spinning when I saw her exit customs :devil:
