Many of you know that Patrice and I are on our way to meet our little girls in Madrid for a road trip to the north of Spain. This will be the first time I have ever rented a car or even driven a car in Europe.
The time change is always a challenge for me so this time we thought we would stop in New York for a few days to have some fun and get slightly adjusted before reaching the Iberian peninsula. The forecast for NYC is currently 36 degrees and light snow. I look out the window at LAX, see a beautiful California day and wonder, what idiot thought of this?
Patrice and I are trying a bold experiment, we are only taking carry on luggage. I am very proud of her efforts. It was a challenge for me but even more of a challenge for her. We will see how things work out.
I started writing this message in LAX. Now I am writing from 33,000 feet over the state of Iowa. I am sure lots more fun stuff will happen tonight but I can’t resist the urge to send this message from 6 miles above the Earth’s surface. See attached photo taken minutes ago.
