Google Appreciation Day

Our first check cleared, so we're feeling very well disposed towards Google today. We've yanked their chain a bit in the past but they've been good hosts. So here's a small token of our appreciation.

"The Adoration of Google" by Gerrit van Honthorst 1622.

And here too is a token of our appreciation of British Airways and their contribution to our Christmas travel plans. (NOT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION.)

British Airways is a full service global airline, offering year-round low fares with an extensive global route network. Their airline flies to and from centrally located airports and offers flights around the world. Book flights, great value hotels and car rental, as well as check-in online, view the latest offers and manage your booking with one of the world's most popular airlines at ba.com

Remember, if you find a flight you want on a booking engine like Orbitz or Travelocity, you can check to see if the same exact flight is offered on the airline’s own website (you'll usually save about $6).
