Being Cranky Offers No Rewards!
Oh, the joys of travel! I spoke about them yesterday. Here is Part 2. After our one-year anniversary whirlwind trip, we expected a no-glitch flight. But, our flight was delayed two hours which meant a late-night, 12:30 am arrival home. By the time we would get our luggage, hop on the parking bus, get our…
Suitcase – MIA!
I’ve traveled enough to know the drill. We step off the plane, tired but relieved, only to face the final hurdle: baggage claim.
