Yesterday we drove down to Newark, New Jersey. It was pretty uneventful. I sure do love those NJ drivers. We stopped at the New Jersey Welcome Center, and it was anything but welcoming. It was only open 7am – 4pm. They should take a few lessons from Moe’s on how to be more welcoming. Welcome to Moes!
We stayed at an “Extended Stay” near the airport. I all I have to say is that I am glad I will not have to stay there an extended amount of time. We went to dinner at a Caribbean Restaurant that we have tried a year or two ago – it was not as good as it was last time, but it was still nice.
Max did fine in the car ride on the way down. He was good. He was not happy about it.
Max was a little nervous about the hotel room, but he settled down. For a while he would not even eat his treats. Poor guy. Once we went to bed he settled down and eventually ended up snuggling with me for a little while we slept. He was purring the whole time. Eventually I had to disturb him because I was restless and needed to get up.
Max is not Cargo on United. We will pick up at HARC (Heathrow Animal Reception Center). He along with his paperwork will clear immigration and customs. He will be in his crate about 10 hours. They will let him out and clean up any messes he makes at HARC. We will get the car crop out luggage off at the hotel and then go pick him up at HARC.
We are getting ready to board our flight now.
