The plane home
02.01.2009
We took the plane home today at about 10 a.m. We decided not to take the bus, and instead ordered a cab for way too much money. After breakfast at the hotel and a quick stop to buy some bagels for my neighbour who is taking care of my cat, we are off to LaGuardia airport. Checking in is easy and quick, then we have like 1.5 hours to kill before the plane leaves. To my utter surprise, the airport has left some fruit, coffee and snacks for us in the terminal! Amazing. I relish a big giant orange and drift in and out of sleep while watching footage of bombings in the West Bank on TV. I hate being so out of touch that I have no idea what is going on out there.
