Back to the States from Paris, United offers a bit more variety as well:
Chicago to Seattle portion, which is our final routing, is back to one of the movies we may have already seen on El-Al. Oh well:
More notes that is probably not interesting to anybody but me!
Our second part of trip is from Tel Aviv to Paris. I can’t tell for sure which movie we’ll see, but it’s some combination of the following, judging by our airline type:

Not sure why this interests anyone else, but I looked it up, so figured I’d post it for history sake… Movies for our flights:
Our first flight: a red-eye, is Dan In Real Life

The longer flight has more options, including Follow That Bird (one of my favorites from growing up) and Bee Movie.

We’re heading to the Seattle Home Show later this afternoon with our friends Mike and Elisabeth, our usual partners in crime for this particular event. We haven’t always had a great need to visit the show, as it is mostly focused on remodeling, landscaping, building, etc… but it is always a great place to get ideas and advice (though often, the companies who can afford to participate charge more than I am willing to spend; it is the gotcha of these types of events). There are a few things I am looking for this time though:
I am sure there are other services out there as well; one nice thing is that even though these companies are expensive, they tend to have pretty good promotional deals offered if you book at the show. I assume this is even more so during the last few hours of the event (which is when we’ll be there). If they haven’t hit their numbers, I assume they might be a little more willing to play "let’s make a deal!" Let’s hope so!
