We made it to Dallas safely and smoothly. No problems at all.
Cool stuff for those that travel through Heathrow:
The store where you can buy bottles of overpriced alcohol gives out samples! We tried gin with cucumber, something like a mohito, and Prim's lemonade. I was hoping they'd offer Bailey's, but no go this time.
Then I had a dark mocha light frappucino at the Starbuck's kiosk. We had a two hour layover.
We flew American Airlines from Heathrow to Dallas. It seems everytime we travel now, the time to go by faster. I'm sure it has something to do with all the movies and tv shows they now have available. I watched two movies, an episode of The Office, an episode of Monk, and I played Tetris. I also read the magazines they have available, one of which has Rain Wilson (Dwight Schrute) on the cover, so naturally we had to read that article.
The flight wasn't full and I had an open seat to my left. But the plane was just freezing. I am so glad I thought to take a sweater. (I had planned on just wearing shorts and a tank as Dallas temperatures are around 100 degrees F. )
We flew out of Budapest at 8:30 am (1:30 am CST) and arrived at my brother and sister-in-laws around 7:15 pm CST. Zara, my niece, is so much fun. She cried upon immediately seeing Justin because of his facial hair. But she laughed with me! :) (We knew she didn't like facial hair, but Justin ran out of razors Sunday and decided to wait until we got here to go buy more. I'll keep you posted as to how Zara reacts when his face is clean shaven.)
And oddly, I didn't sleep well at all last night. Usually I can sleep fine the first two nights, so we'll see how easily I fall asleep tonight. Justin slept fine.

Glad you made it back safely. American does offer a lot to watch since you get your own screen, which I love. I watched The Office when I flew back in April!
I am so confused...you just got back to Budapest, and now you are in Dallas... I am sure you told me that before, but I forgot you were going to the States. How long will you be there? I miss seeing you! hugs and have fun!!!
We are in Dallas for a wedding on Aug. 9. Justin's best friend from college is getting married in Plano, TX. Justin is his best man.
We decided to make the most of it and come the week before to see family.
