Shameel,
welcome to the ever growing band of expat's living over here in the US of A. Too bad your going to be living in Fresno (not sure why) but I hope its successful for you in whatever you are doing. I'm SFO based (dont live there though) but if your going to be in the area you can always drop me an email and if I'm between trips or something can always spare a few hours to show you around. Email address is available via the board.

MS

Nice reprt as always Shameel. It was interesting see a wet LAX - I don't think I have ever seen it rain there!

Great report and nice pics! Of all the times I've been to LAX (1987 and May last year) I've never seen arrivals from the beach end!
When I was there last year I kicked myself for packing my camera in the suitcase as we had a great clear day for arriving and could have taken some nice shots as we turned downwind. Also would have had some nice shots of Mount St Helens as we left Seattle; the big hole created by that eruption many years ago all covered in snow.

Enjoy your move and new home! BTW is this a permanent move?

Peter.
