The flights were actually rather uneventful. Of course, A might have a different opinion as I got to sit by myself in an empty row for the first leg while she sat with the kids and then I was in the row directly behind them on the second leg. (I sat next to my favorite fellow passengers. The TB sufferer with the wet hacking cough and the obvious germaphobe who kept sighing and pulling her shirt up over her nose with each hack - I just held my breath as I looked out the window.)
I will have to admit that the folks at Delta are much nicer than the ogres at North-worst and the planes are nicer. The only complaint I have about Delta's planes are the seats - the upholstery is a super slick, leather-like, vinyly kind of covering that reminds me of the stuff they cover the exam tables in a doctor's office with and at the same time, a tinkle sheet. It was very disconcerting and I kept waiting for a doctor to stop by and ask me to bend over and breath easy.
This first day was pretty good. The weather was nice and I am starting to calm down from the travel, but I do get extremely antsy just sitting around at the pool or on the beach. I am not much of a sit still kind of guy, especially on vacation. At least I have a few things to do and I can always add a couple more runs or swims to kill the time. It kind of sounds like I am stuck in a penal colony rather than on vacation. Tomorrow is another day breakin' rock and tryin' not to get shivved by my bunkmate. Wish me luck.

MMM Florida. I knew you would come around.
I bet you look cool in sandles and knee high black socks.
Those squirrels will get ya every time!
I'm not good at sitting around for long either - although a good book sometimes solves that problem . . .for about an hour :)
Have fun!
