Travel preps contd.....

I checked today and found out all the big changes the government was going to implement for security in airports will not go into affect after all. What this means for us is that we can still bring a carryon and a personal bag per person, and we won't have to have everyone sit with nothing to do and no bathroom trips for the last hour of our long trip from China, or for the hour or so trip from LAX to SLC. That is such a relief. Grown ups have a hard enough time doing nothing for an hour, let alone five year olds.

I have preliminarily packed all of our large suitcases, at least with the stuff we are taking other than our clothes and personal items, and so far nothing is over 15 pounds. With a limit of 45 pounds (really its about 50 but who wants to push it) we should be well under and not have to worry about an overweight charge on our bags.

Still no word about our TA. Not really expecting it til next week at the earliest.
