As I was sitting here in JFK airport waiting for my flight to leave, I saw a familiar face walk by, Bill B., a pilot and captain for American Airline. We shook hands and laughed about the fact that as much as we travel we have never run into each other. I asked where he was headed and it was DFW, so he would be flying me home. I called Nancy and we had a good laugh as she knows Bill and his wife well. They live in Dallas, as do hundreds of AA pilots and yet in the past 11 years we have never run into each other.
Btw, no exercise today! Maybe tomorrow.
It's been a long day and it's about midnight for me, but the sunlight keeps me going.
Also btw, on the way back I had the same cabin crew and the attendent from Italy who I met on the way over, and I had a warm greeting. She's been doing the Italy route for 40 years. AA ha no manditory retirement age for attendents she told me.
Ciao

You know you've had a long day of traveling when you post the same entry twice!
Welcome back to the USA
I've met so many wonderful people at airports. Some of which I still remember many years later. This sounds like a really great experience, Doug! So happy to see you enjoyed it, despite the rain.
