Safe journey to America for Chas!

[featherB 1]

He arrives in Chicago around 3 pm, and Nashville at 7:45. (Lets start the no delay mantra now, yes?

I will begin the chanting - nooooooo delays!!

Nashville's an hour behind this place, isn't it? (I think...). I'll be thinking of yers at 8:45pm EST... so happy for you!

And yay, 3 days from now it's time for wearing That Dress!!

[TracyTN 237]

Yeah, we're on central time (sorry, should have clarified that).

I know - I confirmed with the judge's secretary today for Friday. I still can't hardly believe it!!!

Aww, how exciting and wonderful! Congratulations to you both and hopefully the flight is pleasant and non-turbulent

[TracyTN 237]

Thanks Jenny!!! Although he won't care about the turbulence, he and I love to fly so we are normally just happy to be there. Not to mention that neither of us can sleep much on planes. I always feel like I'll 'miss' something - which is normally only that coolish map ticking by the miles.

Yes I'm a nerd.

I LOVE that map, although I do get a bit fed up with it when the only things showing on the screen for hours on end are either Godthab (Greenland) or Halifax, Nova Scotia. I'm sick to death of both of those places, and I've never been to either (unsurprisingly)... I'm sure they're both very nice, tho.

[TracyTN 237]

Yeah, the dreaded GODTHAB!!!!! Though IIRC, that's about halfway, so once I CROSS it, I usually do a dance of joy (from the seated and upright position ).

Thank GOD there is someone else who does the Godthab Dance of Joy!!!

I do it too - finally seeing the little plane inch its way past that place is definitely cause for celebration. Seeing it (Godthab, that is, not the little plane) disappear off the screen altogether, even more so.

On my Gatwick-JFK flight this time, there weren't any little seat-back screens... shame, 'cos I was actually looking forward to watching my progress on the little screen on my way over here For Good! Stupid Delta...

I feel a bit more sane to know that I'm not the only person who does it!

I'll ask Chas later if he did it today.

I try to avoid the flight tracker if I can - sometimes it's like watching a pot boil!

[TracyTN 237]

Hee hee too late - I got a link to one that my firewall is NOT blocking, and he's over Quebec at the moment.

[Trompe le Monde 1,107]

He'####### the North American continent, baby! Not long now....hopefully a smooth POE experience. Where will that be?

[TracyTN 237]

O'hare, baby. I love that airport (does that make me weird???

[MaryandMian 1]

I am getting so excited for you Tracy and only three more days until you tie the knot too girl.

[Trompe le Monde 1,107]

Yes! Especially if you have to change terminals. But then, I'm the weirdo who likes Atlanta.
