Travel

Today was a successful travel day. After two flights I found myself safe and sound in a Houston area hotel. No lost luggage, no missed flights, no problems.

In fact, today was a win. I skipped baggage fees. How? I packed one carry-on and one "personal item." When the airline asked for volunteers to have their carry-ons checked for free, I thought about it and finally decided to take a chance. The last time I did this DFW managed not to get my suitcase on the right plane. I congratulate the DFW baggage handlers for doing the job correctly this time. My faith in them is ALMOST restored.

Today was also my last indulgence in greasy, fried fast food. I feel awful. Give me a salad. Tomorrow, give me a salad. Right now I could not eat a thing.

I promise to make this blog more "Texas to Paris" than it has been and to write more. How can I teach the importance of writing and audience if I'm not writing myself?

I think I need to take some pictures as well.
