I would do it in a sec, but the Mrs. only has one destination in mind.


I hear a sucking sound on the East Coast.

In the past I've put it to good use. If you get a positive 60 hrs and then upgrade to higher pay for whatever reason, you can pull it out at the higher payscale. I did it going from FO to Capt. Of course it works in reverse too so watch out!

You definitely want to pay attention to the Mrs. in more ways than one!!

I know. It was there a few weeks ago, and they pulled it.

You try any other combination of jets and bases?

I was wondering if both were still open. Been to both years ago!!

As Ferd said, because of the counterfeiting, I'd use the hotel exchange. You still have to watch them. Both the CA and I figured out how much based on the posted exchange rate and the hotel still tried to short us. There are ATMs in Guangzhou, but make sure you use the ones at a bank.

The good news is I finally have my Eastern Hemisphere book put together. I had a couple of binders and ALL of the "stuff" stuck in a gym bag in MSP. I just kept adding revisions to it thinking "hey I'll never go to any of these places, or better yet I'll wait for ship sets". But hey, whats 3 or 4 hours out of a lifetime

Looking forward to the trip! Thanks for the info on the grocery. Where did you get money? I assume the French use Euro, but I guess you can never assume anything with the French

Ferd
Sorry for the delay getting back to you but I just finished a 700 mile road trip from Dallas to East Alabama. You can use the ATM in the grocery store (across from the registers) or down the street across from the local McDonalds. The French use the Euro. You can get 20/30/50 or more Euros at a time.

Have fun.

ACL, is that sucking sound coming from NYC? If it is then it must be the ER because this category is beginning to suck.
