In-Flight Entertainment

I got a sign the other day (Tuesday?) while eating a fortune cookie that I just couldn't ignore. The cookie said:

"Stop waiting! Buy that ticket and take a trip today"

So, since then I've been in talks with everyone about going to Peru and seeing my parents with Erin. All seems to be going well and all signs are still saying "yes." Her doctor said it was ok, just to have moquito netting for her crib and stroller/carrier (which we have).

But anyway, I found this cute article that I thought was about a real airlines until I got a ways into it. Darn, knew it was too good to be true! Enjoy:
