Day 1
On the Way to JFK
November 7, 2019 in the United States ⋅ ☁️ 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 off and picked them up from the airport several times already so I'm guessing that Judy is feeling that now it's time to give back.Read more

The Drop Off
November 7, 2019 in the United States ⋅ ☁️ 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.

Day 1
Checked Bag
November 7, 2019 in the United States ⋅ ☁️ 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 checking the bag was $60! I was so annoyed about that. This is the first time that I've ever had to pay for luggage when I travel. I'm not happy! Kathy's bag was just slightly over the weight so the clerk allowed her to get away with it. At least both of us aren't paying.Read more

Day 1
Negotiations
November 7, 2019 in the United States ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F
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 luggage fee. All least we got better seats out of it though.Read more

Day 1
Where's Our Gate?
November 7, 2019 in the United States ⋅ ☁️ 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 construction now. I hope, once it's done, that it's as nice as Kennedy.Read more

Day 1
Groot's Ready to Go
November 7, 2019 in the United States ⋅ ☁️ 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 be raining while we're in Rome. I'll be keeping Groot and Danbo with me throughout the trip. I'm hoping to get some good toy shots.Read more

Day 1
Time for Lunch
November 7, 2019 in the United States ⋅ ☁️ 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 salad sandwich and I got just a simple buttered bagel. I'm not expecting anything good to be served on the plane so it's better for us to fill up now.Read more

Eat & Go
November 7, 2019 in the United States ⋅ ☁️ 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'm not sure that I'd care for it.Read more
