I got a text message this morning at 4:40am saying our flight had been delayed for 2.5 hours. We had a 6 hour layover on this upcoming flight before heading to Europe, so it’s good there is some leeway. I was just talking to Dw and I was telling him how hard it was to…

I think I better mention this before I forget as the day approaches for Emma and I to leave for Africa. If you slide over to the sidebar and cruise down to just below the live traffic feed you will notice a small box with a pretty big number in it. That number is how…
