The deck did travel safely, and well packed.
When I first unpacked the box, I first noticed the included card that came with it: a personal 'letter of introduction' and well wishing, like I was receiving in my care for a short period a well travelled friend.
Home, I took the red bag that contains the deck and admired its design - a looped handle adds to its functionality, and it is a bright (but not overbearing) colour.
Taking the boxed deck out of the bag, my small gray four-legged friend, deciding that my lap is the best place for a dog to have a rest, sniffed the bag, grinned (honest!) and layed his head back to rest (it is a dog's life after all!).
I then logged on before opening the deck itself, and checked late emails from the day, a couple of work related things, and AT.
I then opened the box, and making sure that the deck was all face down (except the one signed by Jeannette, that I turned over a few times) looked through all the signatures and the often foreign dating of numerical month before day method (realised through dates such as 2/14/06!)
Keeping the deck face down, I then randomly selected a card that was not already signed, checked what it was, and then looked through the deck's imagery - great choice!
I look forward to looking after it for a few days
