"Sometimes you have to really work to get where you're going, but it's usually worth it."

Yep. We were trying to fly from Belize to San Diego 2 weeks ago while there was that huge snow storm in East Coast.

Belize to Houston was no problem, but we ended up having to fly into Santa Ana and rent a car to get home. Having a netbook with us while on the ground in Houston really helped us out.
