The Phoenixan Devil and The Phoenixan Angel - Part Two

A quick catch up to let you know more about our angels and demons... As I said a few days ago, the demons emerged when picking up our new car...

(We've decided to drive across America, instead of battling the Greyhound buses [Sorry, Grandma - but don't worry, we are safe!])

So, they took more money than we deemed appropriate... hence their title... Devils/Demons... call them what you will... my words were a little harsher! And when I say more than appropriate, I mean we were trying to cut bits out of our travelling to make up for this 'faux pas'.

Anyway, driving bitterly back to our motel in Phoenix - we decided to try and forget about the money and relax. Callum went and chilled by the pool, while I sulked and wanted a hug from one of the parentals.

That's when my angel turned up - I was talking to the manager of the motel about our tale of woe... half an hour later, as I was about to swim my troubles away, she appeared outside of our room... with four gift vouchers for free nights in any of their motels within the U.S... my angels name... Kristine.

People like Kristine restore my faith in society. She had nothing to do with how badly the car hire agency treated us, yet saw how it affected our travelling and produced these four golden tickets...

So now we're leaving Phoenix with a spring in our step and a smile on our face - onwards to El Paso... a littler closer to Captiva, a little further from those demons...
