Scribe's Log Stardate 7.10.11.

Hello all! We safely made it to Arizona. Thank goodness it is cooler out here than in California. It has been so hot we are living on freeze pops and I finally gave in and bought an 11 dollar outfit so I could be cooler (and of course before I even got to wear it, it is cool). I am not however complaining. Well, ok I am but I am really appreciative for the cooler weather. The rain showers the last few days have been great too. However, in the desert, the sun shines even when it is raining! We are all very excited that we are all going to the Grand Canyon today! Elena is currently swimming in a green pool (some chemical reaction between a mineral and the chlorine) but no one else would join her. We have had no more engine problems and are so grateful for all the help we have received. The people we have been met have been so nice and kind and you all back home have been so supportive and sweet. We cannot find enough thanks to articulate our sincere appreciation. I know I have not posted any pictures. I have been trying but I am struggling with limited internet access and seven people trying to share one computer. However, I have not forgotten you all. San Francisco was amazing! Especially because we got amazing Ghiradelli's chocolate and ice cream! I have also learned that Jelly Belly jelly beans are really tasty!  I have to go but first here is a list of memorable quotes from the trip...

James - "What's T-air-a-me-soup?"

"My ears won't poop"       - (instead of my ears wont pop)

"Look a Starbucks"
                        L - "I should have brought my Starbucks giftcard"

Elena -   "In what universe is Paris in Fresno?"    (Monsters verses Aliens copy cat line while we were                                                                                    in      Fresno, California)

Elena - "Look a buffalo!"

"no, those are cows"

Elena - "no, no, look at the buffalo!"

Mom -   "Its 102 but it only feels like 99!"
