Greetings from Paradise!

Ah, the good life...
We're laying over in Detroit in the Delta SkyClub which we did a 30-day membership just for this trip.  Best decision we've made yet.  This place is a palace - an oasis in the desert of the countless gates and magazine racks and airport mini-restaurants that we all associate with the drudgery of airport travel.  We are lounging through our layover with free wifi (hence the blog update), complimentary cappuccino and cocktails, snacks, private restrooms and big, comfy, leather chairs.  All in the comfort of our own, semi-private alcove...ahhhhhh.  I could take a nap here if I could get the five year old to stop running around the place like a looney. (No, really he's doing remarkably well.)  What a far cry from our first trip two years ago. I could get used to this kind of travel.  Unfortunately, in about 60 minutes we've got a 5 hour flight to Seattle crammed like sardines in a tin can. Oh well.  All worth it for dear Lucy.  And it's helpful to know there is another one of these amazing lounges available to us at SeaTac Airport. 
Way to go Dad for finding us this jewel!
