You Are Not Alone

Although I packed up and put my house up for sale on my own, getting multiple pets moved across the country to a port of entry and then moved across the Atlantic to the Bahamas is not something that can easily be done alone.  Thus, I hired at great expense a company that prepared all the necessary paperwork for the dogs, cats and Big Blue Bird, then came and picked me (and a million crates and suitcases) up in a van, took me and my companions to LAX and worked with the airline personnel sorting out the paperwork (there is always a screwup at the last minute where one piece of paper threatens to derail the whole trip and these shipping experts know how to handle a $20 bill).  The lady that helped me had done this before, so I just sat in the van at the terminal while she worked her magic and we eventually watched all the crates disappear into the black hole of the cargo area.  Hoping for the best for my little friends, I boarded the aircraft and sat back to enjoy the flight to Miami.
