We Just Left
7 novembre 2019, Stati Uniti ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F
Joe just picked us up and we're on our way to Kennedy Airport. This is going to be our third trip to Europe and our first trip to Italy. We're looking forward to this vacation so much!
On the Way to JFK
7 novembre 2019, Stati Uniti ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F
We had planned to go to the airport using an Uber cab but Judy insisted that Joe will take us. I feel better riding with someone that I know and, as a bonus, it saves us money. We've dropped them offLeggi altro
The Drop Off
7 novembre 2019, Stati Uniti ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F
Without any traffic, we made great time in getting to JFK. Joe just dropped us off at departures and we're now headed to the check in gate. I hope that the line isn't too long.
No Lines!
7 novembre 2019, Stati Uniti ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F
I was expecting it to busy but there was no lines at all! So far, this trip is starting off great! I hope that our good luck keeps going!
Checked Bag
7 novembre 2019, Stati Uniti ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F
I knew that our luck couldn't last! The Alitalia clerk that was checking us in decided to weigh my carry-on bag and told us that it was too heavy and would have to be checked. The cost for checkingLeggi altro
Negotiations

Kathy spent some time talking with the Alitalia clerk and was able to get us better seats, with a window and more towards the front, but she wasn't able to get me out of paying the checked luggageLeggi altro
Where's Our Gate?
7 novembre 2019, Stati Uniti ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F
Kennedy Airport is getting so modern! When we first got in the airport, I thought that I was in a fancy shopping mall. We walked by so many high end stores. LaGuardia airport is under constructionLeggi altro
Groot's Ready to Go
7 novembre 2019, Stati Uniti ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F
One of my goals for this trip is to do more toy photography. I'm bringing Groot, Danbo, and some of my favorite figures. I'm not sure how much I'll be using my figures because it's supposed to beLeggi altro
Time for Lunch
7 novembre 2019, Stati Uniti ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F
We were in such a rush to get ready for our trip that we didn't even have time to have breakfast or lunch. We just ended up going to the bagel shop and getting food there. Kathy got an egg saladLeggi altro
Eat & Go
7 novembre 2019, Stati Uniti ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F
The food choices at the airport are getting much better than they used to be. This place is not just the standard American foods but also Turkish and halal foods. I've never had halal food yet. I'mLeggi altro
Our Plane is Here!
7 novembre 2019, Stati Uniti ⋅ ☁️ 57 °F
This is the plane that's going to take us to Rome. We've never flown anywhere on Alitalia before so I'm hoping that everything goes well. I'm still annoyed at them for making me check my bag but let'sLeggi altro
Things to Come
7 novembre 2019, Stati Uniti ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F
This was the wallpaper hanging up just outside the entrance to the men's restroom. I thought that it was quite a coincidence, since we're going to Rome and planning on seeing both of these places. I'mLeggi altro
Boarding Line
7 novembre 2019, Stati Uniti ⋅ ☁️ 57 °F
People are starting to line up to get on the plane but, with the way it's arranged, many people don't seem to know where to go and are just wandering around in confusion. I had thought that theLeggi altro
In the Jetway
7 novembre 2019, Stati Uniti ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F
We're trying to get on the plane but the jetway is all backed up. I've never seen one that's so crowded! I don't understand why it's such a process to board a plane. People get on trains, buses andLeggi altro
A Bad Start
7 novembre 2019, Stati Uniti ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F
So far, I'm not very impressed with Alitalia at all. They made me check my luggage, and charged me for it, our boarding was delayed for a bit over an hour, and then, when we did finally board, it wasLeggi altro
We're Finally Going
7 novembre 2019, Stati Uniti ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F
After some delays, we're ready to take off. I hope that this is going to be a good flight but I'm not sure that it will be. The seats are very small and uncomfortable and, for some reason, the planeLeggi altro
So Tired
7 novembre 2019, North Atlantic Ocean ⋅ ☁️ 54 °F
I've been trying to sleep but, like always, I'm just not able to fall asleep while I'm sitting up. It doesn't even matter how tired I am. I just can't get comfortable enough to fall asleep. I'm sureLeggi altro
A Miserable Meal
7 novembre 2019, Canada ⋅ ☁️ 46 °F
Once again, the food that the airlines serve is the stuff of nightmares. It would be so much better if the airlines served simple sandwiches or, better yet, don't serve any food and then knock a fewLeggi altro
Not Enjoying It
7 novembre 2019, North Atlantic Ocean ⋅ ☁️ 41 °F
I gave my meal to Kathy, since I didn't want it, and although she picked at it, she couldn't get a full meal putting my food and hers together. Usually Kathy will eat just about anything so, if she'sLeggi altro
Bad Food
7 novembre 2019, North Atlantic Ocean ⋅ ⛅ 43 °F
Danbo can't believe what the airlines are passing off as food these days. I'm really making an effort to do more toy photography so I'm trying to work my figures into a variety of shots. I think thatLeggi altro
Don't Drink It!
7 novembre 2019, Irlanda ⋅ ⛅ 45 °F
It was so warm on the plane and when the person seated next to us, in the aisle seat, got up to walk around for a bit, they came back with three cups of water, one for each of us. I thought that itLeggi altro
Can't Sleep
7 novembre 2019, North Sea ⋅ ⛅ 48 °F
Kathy and I are both exhausted but can't fall asleep. For some reason, this plane doesn't have those little air blowers above the seats. Those are great for giving the passengers cool air but, withoutLeggi altro
Ready for Breakfast
8 novembre 2019, Francia ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
The lights have just been turned up, although it still seems very dark and gloomy to me, and the flight attendants are getting ready to start serving breakfast. I've just now noticed that all of theLeggi altro
Orange Juice?
8 novembre 2019, Francia ⋅ ⛅ 37 °F
What Alitalia called breakfast was just as bad as the previous meal they served us. This red drink was served to us and they called is orange juice. Kathy questioned the color and was told that it'sLeggi altro
Up and About
8 novembre 2019, Italia ⋅ 🌧 55 °F
With breakfast, such as it was, out of the way, I decided to stretch my legs a bit and use the restroom. I don't think it will be much longer until we land so it's best to get everything done now. ItLeggi altro
