Things don’t always go as planned and when they don’t, it helps to be flexible and have a sense of humor. Otherwise, we are in a really bad mood.
Arriving at Logan Airport at 5:30 am for the British Airways flight to Stockholm by way of London, I was notified that the plane didn’t “show up.” Huh? Since there was no advance notification, I’d shown up in plenty of time. They kindly booked me on another flight, leaving 11 hours later, and handed me a voucher for a whopping $19 to use in the airport. Fortunately, Hilton Hotel is next to the terminal and they held my luggage while I walked through their little garden and took a cat nap in their courtyard – it was good to get some sunshine before the long overnight flight.
It’s common knowledge that the best way to spend time at the airport is to have a drink, and I like to do what’s best. The voucher went towards lunch – yay!
Time for the World Cup – go USA!
Hopefully this plane will show up. I’ll see you in Stockholm.
