Only got about an hour of sleep before leaving this morning. My dad and his girlfriend dropped me off at the airport. My friends and family gave me a memorable send off. Greeted with gifts, hugs and good blessings. One thing I love about traveling, as far as airports go, is the people watching. Always the people running late, in a mad dash to their terminal. The odd tourist couple who get out of the house once every solar eclipse.
My Southwest flight to Newark had a connection in Houston I was unaware of until checking in at Love Field. Touching down in Houston I spot a killer whale painted jet. I had my fingers crossed that the whale plane was to be my next flight. Alas, I did not get to ride Shamoo into Newark. They had a Pappa's Burgers at the gate of my flight to New Jersey. I stopped in for a Ziegen Bock and a breakfast sandwich. Coincidentally my Dad and fellow family members took me to Pappa's Burgers last night for a farewell dinner. I favor the Monterrey Chicken. (If you haven't eaten there...do it). I conversed with two women at the bar. An older woman in her 60's and a middle aged pregnant woman in her mid-late 30's. We shared travel plans with one another. The elder woman gave me some great advice on a job to look for, if I needed one. She recommended getting a job at a bar near the Universities because they are always looking for people who speak English. I most certainly took her words of advice into consideration.
Landed in Newark safely. Slept a majority of the three hour flight from Houston. I checked into my flight on Air Canada to Toronto and they boarded me on an earlier flight. Air Canada is a great airline so far. Very attractive first class flight attendant. My flight attendant has the lips of a sucker fish.....or Angelina Jolie. I can listen to music, watch a movie or play games. I chose to listen to XM Radio.
I'm currently sitting at the Bacardi Rum Bar at the Toronto Airport, Skyping my cousin in Madrid, enjoying Molson Canadian beer and watching sports center. The city of Toronto, flying in, was beautiful. I would like to experience life outside of the Toronto Airport soon. What I would not like to experience is this $31 tab that was just put in front of me for a sandwich and two beers. Thanks Bacardi Rum Bar, you were delicious......but never again.
Tomorrow I'll be in Madrid. Until then my followers. I learned the spanish word for orgy today...."orgia" pronounced "or-hee-ah" Spain will be fun!
