The fast pace, availability of flashy media and the over stimulation of LA is addictive for sure. I am having trouble picturing myself sitting around, doing one thing at a time. I can see why we love this action.
As I have been hanging out with Dan & Lily, the phone goes off with--instant messaging--email--the actual telephone--and the Internet--continuously. All seamlessly part of what ever we are doing.
How do they do it?
I am a little worried about them. What happens if the damn thing dies? Life as they know it would end, leaving what?
And, the damn thing is useful.
We consulted Sprint GPS to get on-going directions to where we were going, the Internet to book a motel room, Google maps to get directions to Vegas, the location of movies and on and on.
It is useful.
Not to mention music and DVD's.
In a few minutes, Dan will take me to the airport. No Internet unless I am willing to pay for it...and I'm not. No cell phone because mine doesn't work in the US...just me and a book.
I have to take my hat off to Dan & Lily for providing a Knock My Socks Off 4 days in the US. Full of the best entertainment...we saw Avatar in 3D this afternoon...Love in Vegas...both at the top of their media.
Oh, did I mention that Lily got tickets to see the Kings and Avs play hockey? That is the first time I've scene a pro hockey game.
So many first! So much great stuff.
And the best...visiting with them!
I feel completely thrilled with the trip.
And, I will be relieved to get home...this pace was fantastic for 4 days and much appreciated. And the normal pace of my life in Panama will be welcome.
