We are in Orlando, Florida (Land of The Mouse). Our flight to Puerto Rico is not for a few hours. They have internet connections here in Florida (who knew?); I am catching up with blogs after 3-4 days.
We took the ‘red eye’ last night from Phoenix. I don’t recommend these things. I don’t sleep in hot closed areas, in turbulence and sitting up. I have been more or less awake since 5AM Friday morning.
I had a cup of coffee from the Evil Empire viz. Starbucks - my first cup in 6 months - I have palpitations and feel buzzed yet I am falling asleep. What a combination. Someone proposes we have a cocktail on board - that will be the death knell !
So that is about all the news.

Wow, you must be EXHAUSTED!

I sure hope that your next flight is good (maybe catch some zzz’s during?)
Take care!

Oh go on - maybe ONE cocktail
I’d have three, personally and that would guarantee that I sleep!
Safe travels

It’s ironic that the things we ingest during long trips (caffeine, alcohol) are the very things which ultimately makes these journeys more difficult, in a way.
I never remember to drink enough water, for example.
Best of luck on the next leg of your journey.
I love the way you update your blog “masthead” periodically to REFLECT — as in SPO — I “SPOze” what’s going on in your life. (Sorry, I couldn’t resist.)

I wished you would have let me know. I live all of 5 miles from the airport.

Hope you are at the “having fun” part of the vacation now. Getting there often isn’t half the fun. I know what you mean about sleeping well on a ship. It rocked me to sleep like a baby in a cradle.
So what line are you cruising with? Hope you get internet there.

I’ve been working on my blog. It keeps me from doing housework. Anyway, you’ve shared so much of your life - perhaps you’d like to see a peek at mine.

I have never been able to sleep on a plane so I know how exhausted you must be. Enjoy your time in Puerto Rico!!

Oh my goodness! A red eye flight, a starbucks, and now a cocktail while you’re flying over
Florida?!?
This is surely more excitement than any one person is allowed to have. Good thing you’re with the boys.
