Saturday, December 31. New Year's Eve! Mild dry day.
Obviously we had a fitful sleep and up early: 5:00 am. A coffee and we were ready for the day. Those seven hours just slipped away and next thing we knew Wally was at the door. A pleasant drive to the airport with a Bon Voyage and a message or two.
As the minutes slipped by it became apparent that we were actually detached from our home and 'On Our Way!' This was a very unfamiliar feeling to us as we have not travelled for three years. Fortunately, the airport was very quiet.
Our first adventure was getting our luggage screened: and us personally. That was when the fun started, Delta check-in was not open, but we had checked in yesterday so we proceeded to our gate. My metal shoulders required a secondary screening, as expected. However the money-belt beeped its presence and that had to come off and be opened. It was a good thing there were very few people around.
By now I was almost naked from the waste up. We finally got dressed and had 'Lunch' at a Starbucks: coffee and half a scone. To the gate as there is no Delta Lounge in Vancouver: Oh, the pity! There I did the first travel blog on the road as we know when we finish the 65 minute flight to Seattle, get a bite to eat and settle in, all we will want to do is get to bed, ready for another day of travel. Oh, Joy!
An OK day For A Travel Day...
