2022
1. Jacksonville International Airport. Trying to find food was an adventure. Wife was ordering at Mc Donald’s and a fight broke out. Wife left after paying for the meal. It was like watching a tiger chasing the little lady. LOL.
2. Charlotte International Airport. Hunger games started. So, we trolling the terminal for food. The food was almost that cardboard looking and the taste too. For an expensive cardboard meal, we definitely got the calories and carbohydrates in for the “healthy life style” wink, wink. LOL
3 Newark International Airport. The baggage claim carrusel fiasco. After flight arrived, it was time to collect our bags. Needless to say, the wait had extra time added to the regular pitch. In a sea of bags, a tiny purple bag showed. I thought the bag was too small and looked so show different. So, around and around the bag went. We finally seen the big duffle bag and one was left for pickup. I absolutely believe in relationships. When you don’t have a good relationship, one hardly know the individual. This exactly what happened with the purple bag. That bag went around the carrusel at least 15 times until I decided to investigate. Grabbed the bag and presto… wife’s name on the tag. SMH.
Then, we went our way to collect the transport. To our amazement, we went to the wrong location, Hertz instead of Dollar. After figuring out the correct car rental in place, it was time to register. But there was nobody at the in office. Where was everyone? Break time? No, there is a shortage of personal due to the post pandemic effect. Waited until a lady finally arrived. I did not know that the car I was about to rent was part of the Democratic Party. After paperwork was done, the lady at Dollar instructed us to pick up the car from area 1. Must well have been area 51 due to the location. We walk three parking lots without any success. Finally, I got the courage to ask for directions (LOL). The guy pointed out to pick any car from an area. I said what about the keys and the inspection? He answered, just pick any car all keys are inside. I was surprised. Are they giving cars away or are we finally beco.e a communist country that we are sharing any car. I and to be sure so I went back to the office. The lady with a perplexed looked said yes pick any car and go. So, I did. I looked at my wife and I was still in disbelief. Driving to the exit, we finally realized that the actual check out was at the exit booth. Then, it dawned on us. We definitely looked at each other and just had to laugh.
Driving to our destination, we got lost because my wife used the right street name but the wrong city name. The navigator aka wife was nervous so she shout it back at me on a high tone of voice indicating go she was confused and concerned. The car vibrated. She and I looked at each other due to the shake. What was that? Is the car breaking down? Did the car feelings got hurt because she shout it? Did my intuition pointed out that this was truly a Democrat? After a second vibration, we understood it was the safety feature to stay within lanes. Wow, it wasn’t a Democratic car after all (LOL).
Day one ended by arriving 3 hours late of the original schedule. So, day 1 is done and come to pass.
