March 18th
	Kansas City to Oakland
	First, we got up early on Saturday and it was still dark!  We drove to the airport and the lines were really long!!  Daddy and Mommy didn’t plan on it being Spring Break week!  They closed the door to the plane, but the screeners had to look at Addison’s backpack THREE TIMES.  Daddy was worried that they weren’t going to get on the plane.   Mommy and I sat together by a nice girl in the back of the plane.  The girl was very nice, and showed me lots of things out the window.  Daddy and Addison sat at the front of the plane [by a woman that wasn’t very nice].
	After we landed in Oakland, we got on the shuttle bus to go to the rental agency.  Then we picked out a very cool car.  It was red, with a little thingy that told us the directions on the mirror [Editor’s note: a digital compass].  I told Daddy that there was a place to put more luggage under the cargo area, but Daddy thought it was a seat.  We were both wrong!  It was the place for the spare tire.
	After lunch at a Chinese place [Panda Express], we went to check out our hotel.  We didn’t like it so much!  Went to another hotel, and it couldn’t be rentable, so we [went to Daddy’s office and] found a new hotel.  It was perfect!  Just like home.  It has an upstairs and a downstairs, it has two beds, two bathrooms, two couches, three TVs, and a kitchen.  It has everything we need in a kitchen.
