Back From Pennsylvania

I've just returned from Pennsylvania where we were visiting our son, his partner and our new grandson. I'm still recovering from jet lag and just being busy helping to take care of the newest member of our family.

Our loooong flights to Harrisburg Airport with a short stop in Chicago was exhausting. It was made even more upsetting because United Airlines somehow managed to goof up our seating. We had selected seats next to each other way in advance, but United had changed it so that we sat across the aisle from each other. It made it impossible for us to watch our videos on our laptop that we had planned on using. We decided to watch one of United's movies, but then discovered that the monitor on the back of the seat in front also didn't work!

After all the hassle of travel it was good to finally arrive in Harrisburg, find our rental car and go to meet our grandson.

He was every bit as precious as we knew he would be. Nearly a month old, we loved carrying him and watching his fleeting smiles. Seeing our son carrying his son was priceless.

The hardest thing was leaving them when we returned to Hawaii. I'll be doing a few posts about our experiences in the land of Hershey chocolate in the coming days.
