Hawaii Trip- Day 1

Friday, January 9, 2009. The place: Kathy's car. The time: 4:15 p.m. We begin our trip West by driving... East?! Ahh, apparently this is some new geography thing. We head the opposite direction to get to our destination. Wait a minute. Why are we stopping in Sterling at a Farm and Fleet? Are you buying me chicken feed? What do you mean your dad needs shoes, Anna?! No one consulted ME on this little side excursion. This trip is getting weird already! After wandering around Sterling and figuring out that you need to type in an address in the Tom-Tom, not just a city, we were on our way to Bartlett, Illinois. Not quite the exotic, Hawaiian destination I was expecting, but at least we got to see a slide presentation of Vietnam. I skillfully avoided being plucked and boiled by Mrs. Pham and went to bed dreaming alternately of sandy beaches and small, Asian mommies chasing me with a cleaver! Will this trip ever begin?!
