T'was the night before DR...

T'was the night before DR when all through the house, all the members were packing, not including the mouse.   Our carry-on's were set by the doorway with care, in hopes that the sunrise would quickly be there.  The team nestled down asleep on the floor, knowing they'd soon be off out the door.  Leigh in the front, and Ashley in a rear, they reminded us again not to have any fears.  Then from the the alarm clock there arose such a clatter, we all woke up to see what's the matter.  Away to the airport we flew like a flash, checking our passports and making sure we had cash.  When what to our wondering eyes should appear, but a big shiny jet, a 747 jet-liner.  More rapid than eagles the departure had came!  Now Ashley whistled and shouted and called us by name; "Now Eric! now Zack, now Rosi and Steve! On Chelsea! On Callie, on Marcia with speed!  First to Miami, US customs are there!  Now hurry now hurry, be careful and take care!"   We'll be on the plane soon, our adventure has started, we all covet your prayers especially after we've departed!
