Yee Harr!!

I have arrived safe and sound. The jet-lag has been taken care of with an 11 hour sleep-fest.

On the plane I watched Goal, which is a slightly cheesy football film set in Newcastle and involves an inconcievable rags to riches story. Big Dipper Star rating ***

The 40 yearold Virgin was laugh out loud funny but with a lot of swearing and heavy sex references, including beastiality, it did make me wonder what would happen if the kids weren't able to sit within censoring distance of us. BD stars = ****

Then I watched Batman Begins which was... ho hum. Better than some Batman films but not my cup of tea really. BD stars = ***

I didn't watch Mrs Hendersons Presents or A Cinderella Story. The latter being praised by Sooz as a great film which, for a boxing film, must have been good to get her vote. Sooz Stars = *****

The DFW new International Terminal is very impressive. Absolutely huge but .. empty. Because it was so large it seems like our plane was the only arrival in one of the largest airports in the country.

The taxi driver was a Matthew McMCounaghy sound-a-like. He was very entertaining and a very laid back soul who was dreaming of winning the lottery and chilling out by the coast.
He promised that whoever was in his viechle when he found out he wins would be very lucky people. Needless to say he the good news never filtered through.
