  • Day 6

    Skipped breakfast at the Hicks’.

    To attend Suite breakfast with the Fam.

    Stories were told, and laughs were had.

    And before the goodbye, the full attendance picture.

    Plus the young ‘uns version.

    Good seeing y’all.

    Video tape confessionals pools side followed. (now that Luis Jo has a camcorder,
    he’s more annoying than I am with my, constantly shooting. But I
    believe moving picture cams change the reality a bit more, everyone
    acts different).

    Aviator cruisin’.

    Charlie Chaplin kissing.

    Into the enchanting California sunset.

    Before attending The Family Stone, which turned out to be a sleeper
    charmer hit. Go in with low expectations and it might surprise you. And
    you know I’m a sucker for Claire Danes.

    Popcorn powders in the States? Incredible.

    Weird place final dinner.

    And the quick drop off Hicks Goodbye.

    Day 7.

    The end is nigh! Crazy packing.

    With Italy-like roof box stunt (shipping away fake xmass tree).

    IHOP breakfast.
    (weirdly unpictured).

    And the goodbye to Luis Jose.

    More aviator shinanegans on the our and a half back to LAX.

    And final goodbye to the fam.

    Penis in the LAX bathroom stall.

    Sam, my sister’s ex on the airplane TV CNN.

    An annoying five hours to arrive and pass the penis head tip of Manhattan.

    And the final key maneuver, taking the illegal cab past an unmoving thirty person regular taxi line. Thanks guy.

    What a fucking trip. 3000 miles, 13 family members. 17 Friends. 438 Pictures taken, 178 posted Whew.
