Momo had to have her passport renewed. Even via the super expedite service, they did not let us book an appointment until we do have the actual flight itinerary set up. With 1:45pm flight on 5/16, the earliest appointment we got was 7:00am on the very day of departure. So, we went to the passport center this morning, hoping that we can hop on the flight right after we get the new passport. Once we were there, we were told she would not get it until 1:00pm. No way to make it to the airport in time.

We delayed the flight one day, and we retook the PCR (in Venice Beach, close to the passport center).

Now that we had to kill time until 1:00pm, we had a Monday morning breakfast in Santa Monica.

She did receive the new passport past 1:00pm. We got negative PCR. Now we are ready for departure (if God will).
