To Porto or not

It has been a fun 2 days in suspense at EWR, New Jersey international airport.

My first day at EWR my plane was stuck on the runway for one hour taxiing around looking for an empty gate.

And of course my connecting plane waited for me…..NO!

Day 2, I walked around EWR airport cause my flight was not until 9:55 pm.. what a joy… Now I have some sense of being homeless.

Well, the connecting plane was late upon arrival…. Slight issue, the plane was struck by lightning…. United Airlines to find another plane- nope, none to be had. A flight was scheduled for the next evening, May the third time be the Charm, God willing or the wind & storm going gods allow.

Hearing this message was over 100 very anxious & tired passengers.

Today is good so, Onward & Upward. Day 3 to get to Porto. Fingers crossed….. yeah

Good news, no Punch & Judy antics by the affected passengers… do I hear an “Amen” if you please. But it did come close with one small framed, arm and hand waving lady. The United Agent was able to calm the situation. Another “Amen”!

Oh by the way, I have been in the same clothes for 3 days…. I can not tell if I smell rank. One early sign of Parkinson’s is loss of your sense of smell…

Sure hope I didn’t smell rank. I tired to keep my social distance. Not for Covid-19 reasons
