Waiting For A Plane XXVIII – Munich Again
Waiting for the last flight of a trip always seems to be the most tedious. I just want the voyage to be over. I think this was a different terminal than the flight we took from this airport earlier in the week – we had to take a shuttle train between the buildings. At nine […]
Waiting For A Plane XXVII – Larnaca
This is what business travel looks like. The tourist in me is offended. I saw the hotel, or at least parts of it. There was a series of connected swimming pools that looked very inviting. They weren’t open late at night though, and when you are in meetings from 7:30 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. there […]
More Scammers
I guess it had to happen sometime. I got my first spam email with my work account. Apparently some information is missing from my PayPal account. I’d be perturbed if the email was addressed to me. However, it was addressed to “Costumer.” With the note “Pleas read this email.” I don’t work in the theatre, […]
No Post Today
I have three posts completed and ready to go. But I don’t have internet access at home, so you don’t get to see any of them today. I did try to use my phone as a mobile hot spot, but that isn’t working well. When I try to move photos here it crashes. My book […]
Only in Canada?
The Prime Minister is being slammed by the Leader of the Opposition because he won’t ask the Governor General to apologize for controversial comments. Welcome to Canada. Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer says the Prime Minister has offended millions of Canadians by praising comments the GG made last week about scientific knowledge and religious belief. If […]
Waiting For A Plane XXVI – Munich
It’s a fast dash between planes but it is a small airport. The first time I was here I seem to recall free coffee and newspapers for all passengers. But that was almost a decade ago. There are still newspapers, but only in German, which doesn’t help me any. I didn’t see any coffee. I’m […]
Waiting For A Plane XXV – Basel
It can’t be the look on my face. They never look at my face. Airport security is always an ordeal for me. Especially at 4 a.m. I know the various screening procedures are for my own protection and that of the other passengers. That’s a good thing. I have no problem with being secure. But […]
Waiting For A Plane XXIV
As I sat at Basel airport earlier this week I remembered that I had written a post for my airport series and forgotten to post it. In my defence, it’s been a busy month. I have been here before. Not just this airport. Once again teary farewells. This isn’t a vacation; we’re not sure […]
Sometimes It Works
Isn’t technology wonderful? I’ll admit I don’t always feel that way. Technology can be a burden, a vengeful master, an out of control addiction that we would be better off without. But this past Sunday I saw a new to me application that brought a new perspective to the church service I was attending. We […]
