Swine Flu Diaries: Flying To Mexico
Yesterday, my sister Emily flew to Mexico for her birthday. There are benefits to making such a trip at this time. The District may have confirmed on Wednesday one swine flu case along with three probables, but are you going to let this virus win? Not my brave sister.
Emily called in to report on her courage. The benefits so far: A very empty plane ride. There were no worries about space for that carry-on suitcase. And there was plenty of leg room. Also, the flight attendants told her that she could have an entire can of Coke.
Expect a few more updates from our Mexico correspondent.

Where is your sister going to in Mexico? How old is she? We're planning to go as a family to my sister's wedding in Cozumel(I have a 3 year old and a 1 year old) and I'm nervous that I'm putting my children's health at risk. I need to CALM down!
