:thumbs: oh that s very sweet of you guys, thanks alot for everything noura and said, thanks alot everybody ,and i pray allah for everyone to be together and have a nice life .

well the trip was not smooth at all specially in JFK was a nightmare :wacko: was running left and right, up and down all the way at the airport ,asking this asking that at times NO one to ask, i just find myself somwhere alll alone ,well was all because of stupid immigration process and then work stamp.

as soon as plane landed in JFK which was late about 30 mns i tried to get my hand lagages to leave the plane as soon as possible but was shocked when i found tooooooooooo many ppl waiting ,because other planes landed right before ours from turkey,libanon i think ,italy ... so there were to many immigrants, wanted to call my princess but i couldnt because not allowed to use phone in that area, then stuck in the other place where to get work stamp, the only thing is that i didnt lost my bags and they never looked at them, so on my way to exit, i asked a police officer ,sir should just leave without to look in my bags, he said no you are fine or you want me to look ,i said its up to you sir ,he smiled and said no sir that s fine you can go, good luck.i said thanks sir. once am outside i went to delta place but none was there, so i started to figured it myslef ,took different elevetors, allees,....with my too big heaviy bags and to hand lagage :blink:

took me forever to find myself at delta terminal, but not finished yet i asked they told me its international terminal and that i should go to domestic one oh damn :angry: i wanted to scream .so took me forever again to get that domestic place ,luckily i found that old lady was so nice ,helped me to get a new ticket was 7 pm ,which was aboarding time, plane leave at 730, she asked me to take jacket off and RUN to gate 25 , i was like well just show me which direction she was like this way ,just RUN ,if not you gonna stay here till morning, i said thanks alot ,she helped me thru security stuff,she took my belt off hahahaha, put my hand lagage in that machine with my shoes, told the officers to hurry up ,they did it very fast ,once am clear i put on my shoes belt in hand ,jacket in other hand runing with my bags ,ppl was looking at me but i didnt care :) was too long before i find gate 25 ,it s the same minute when i heard my name at the whole airport, i found many ppl on teh gate but i went straight to the officer and told him that am gonna miss my flight and that i just heard my name ,so they checked my ticket and told me its fine and go ,i run to the plane , was sweating . once am with planes and trucks i asked guys there about plane one was not sure, other didnt hear me, was loud out there ,till some youngman showed me the plane i was like are you sure ?because was a baby plane too small :) i hqd to ask a nice lady in the plane, she said yes welcome aboard sir ,i said thank you madam, she took me to my place ,and closed the door ,then called my carrie to let her knoz am ok and am coming to her .allah sent me that nice girl in atlanta aiport thanks leila ,as soon as i got off she asked me are you simo i said yes ,then took me a picture ,and said your wife is waiting for you am gonna take you to her, was so happy she helped me alot i was so exhausted .

was my best moment to see my princess with nours on phone, held eachother, talked to noura for a while got my bags , leila left then we went home ,SWEET HOME :thumbs:(L)

that was all but new experience though ,am sure i have more waiting for me .

You have me crying too Simo. I'll have to tell Abdel you are here now. He is so terribly homesick right now maybe he will actually use his computer and talk to you. He hates talking on the computer at all, but if you get bored waiting to work maybe he will give in and use it. I know talking to you would be so good for him.

Welcome to Georgia!
