We had great flights out, no hassles, and no delays – very unusual! At the Jax airport we got a bagel sandwich for lunch and saw a lady with the most unusual hairstyle. She was a black lady and she had her hair sculpted into a do that was a foot high with swoops and swirls in it. It was a burgundy color. I asked her a couple of questions about it, but did not have the nerve to ask if it was a hairpiece or her real hair. She says she has it done about every 3 weeks and does it in a different color and style each time. I wish I had thought to take a picture.
We had a dog and 3 babies on one of our flights and nobody made a sound! We flew to Atlanta and changed planes and then to Albuquerque. That flight was a little over 3 hours so we watched the last episodes of “Firefly.” That was a great show – we couldn’t believe they cancelled it after only 13 episodes. We were trying to figure out why and guessed that maybe it wasn’t “simple” enough. No laugh track, very creative dialogue, wonderful characters. It took a little thought to get into their world and understand what was going on, so maybe that was it – who knows. It was a really good show, and one we will need to get on DVD.
We got into Albuquerque in great time and had two very interesting people sitting in front of us. One was a little lady, looked to be in her mid eighties or nineties, dressed to the teeth, very chic. Black sweater, antique gold jewelry, long plaid skirt and black boots all topped off with a very stylish black hat. She had lived in Albuquerque for years. Next to her was a young boy, about 16, flying out to live there. His dad had moved there a month before and his mom was driving from their old home in WV because she wanted to stop along the way and visit Graceland. He had caught a flight earlier than the one planned and was arriving about 7 and his father didn’t expect him until 11. He didn’t know his father’s phone number, but he planned to borrow a cell phone from someone and call his mother and get the number from her to get his dad to pick him up early. Kids! We suggested he could take a taxi to his house, but he didn’t know the address. He zoomed off once we landed and presumably worked it all out.
Hotel fine, now on to the day of Sunday…
