I spent the morning rushing around making sure I had everything I needed and wanted for the trip. When I go to the airport I realized that several of the other students (I don't really know what we are) had already checked in and that their carry on luggage was larger than my single checked bag. My carry on is also only the size of a school backpack so I can't even imagine what the other people in the group packed. We talked and met at the ticket counter and then went through security which was the longest line I have ever seen at an airport. The TSA agent was chatty and obviously bored as he barely glanced at our passports (funny but worrysome). Once we got to the gate we bonded and had mini conversations across the seats in our large group. The flight to New York was an hour shorter than planned, which always seems to happen so they must schedule in the landing pattern when there is slot of air traffic.Unknownnoreply@blogger.comBlogger1125tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3884869315666380871.post-70436783852321103482010-06-27T05:29:42.748-04:002010-06-27T05:29:42.748-04:00Well, as I see from your further notes the plane d...Well, as I see from your further notes the plane did take off.
