Day 1 - Sunday 9/11/05 and Monday 9/12/05

Air Canada

Packing and Travel

Last minute packing, errands, and travel to Los Angeles. Our flight was due to leave LAX on Monday morning, and airline regulations required us to check in at the airport at an uncomfortably early hour. So we thought it best to spend the night at a hotel in LA.

As we took the shuttle to the airport at 5am, the Air Canada maple leaf and images of sardines were dancing thru my head. Five and a half hours to Toronto with a three-hour layover there, followed by twelve hours to Tel Aviv in Israel. With a time change of 9 hours ahead, we lost a day during transit and our arrival will be sometime tomorrow.
