It has been 13 days since we left america and, man, has it been filled with a roller coaster of emotions as well as exciting new memories to be shared. Unfortunately, we forgot our video camera for our first stop so there is no footage. But, hopefully, when I get my film developed there will be photos to share. Anyway, our first stop was phoenix to visit with my Aunt Norma. There we ate lots of food! (yum.) We had Mexican food at my aunts place, then we went and ate at this really nice pizza place. Mouth watering yet?
Next stop was El Paso, which there is only one cool thing about: you can see Mexico.
One last story before I go. On our way out of El Paso we had to go through border patrol. I was driving at the time, so I rolled down my window and the officer asked "Are you all american citizens?" I simply replied, "Yes I am, but he isn't." Well, as you can probably guess where this story is going, he immediately directed us to pull over to the side, asked us to get out of the car, where five officers where standing around us, asking all sorts of questions until John got out his passport and proved he was legal. They sent him off on a boat back to Northern Ireland. Just Kidding. Thankfully he wasn't really who they were looking for, so they let us leave. Ha, well anyway, I hope you enjoyed my story. More to come.
