He's on his way...

Jeff left for Europe this morning. Dean came over around 6:30am to take him to the airport. Daniel and I tagged along, and Scott and Marc were going as well (Tori, Amalia, Joey and Mom stayed home).

We went to Mickey D's for breakfast, then drove out to the airport. They're doing contruction out there, so parking was a bit dicey. Dean dropped us off at the terminal while he went to park the car.

Jeff didn't seem to be all that excited, even today. He was the first one of his group to arrive, and he got bored waiting, so he was pacing like a caged animal. After about 1/2 an hour, Mr Spencer and his wife arrived (they're the tour leaders for the trip). I was taken aback on how young he is. He doesn't look much older than the kids he's taking on the trip! Daniel told me later that he thought that Mr Spencer was 26 years old. He's the same age as Saon for cryin' out loud!

The other two boys going with Jeff's group arrived and they checked their bags. They then headed for the part of the terminal reserved for ticketholders. We said our goodbyes to Jeff at this point. He went thru the security checkpoint, where not only did they check his carry on and his jacket, but made him remove his shoes as well!!! He was soon thru with that part and he disappeared from our view. We then went home and Dean dropped us off before going to the hospital.

I hope Jeff has a good time. I hope he has enough money. I hope he doesn't lose his passport!
