So, David picked us up to take us to the airport and other than the hassle of heavy luggage all went well until we came to scanning my passport. Thank goodness, the agent continued to try different terminals because 2 of the 3 she worked on rejected my passport. I could just imagine that Mike was going to Greece and I was going home to stay with Sassy. Finally, it took it and we went to Starbucks for a cup of coffee and relaxation. That lasted about 10 minutes before we saw the long line forming to get into our gate area so we raced over to be part of the effort to get through security.
Even with all of the warnings from Brandi on items that could and could not get through security, they tried to take away my toothpaste cause it was 4.6 ounces. I just failed to think about toothpaste! However, the guy felt sorry for me and decided that the toothpaste was for 2 people so he let me keep it. They also got my mousse because I didn’t think about it being aerosol.
The flight to Chicago was uneventful but I had a hassle trying to connect to the wifi….. why is everything so hard?!?!? Turns out it isn’t hard, its just expensive….
We’re waiting for 4:00 to take off to Madrid but we are here and organized so the stress level is low. Posting time on this will be wrong cause I’m not on the internet here. It isn’t free and I’m not paying……
