I cannot believe that our six months in Nova Scotia has come to an end and we are already back in sunny Florida. We had a scheduled flight (3 legs – New York/Atlanta/Sarasota) on Monday but got a call late Sunday night to say that the first flight was delayed from 9 AM to 11 AM. By Monday morning that delay was moved to 2 PM. Thanks to Garth Sanford we got to the airport and headed on our way. The airport experiences were all unique. To get to the first plane we walked outdoors, across to the runway, and up a narrow, wobbly staircase. The last time I walked outdoors to a plane was the 80’s. When we deplaned in New York, we caught a bus to take us to the terminal only to find out that our second plane had already taken off. Delta was terrific and in less than 5 minutes after arrival we had new flights and boarding passes. With only enough time for a bathroom stop we were off on flight two to Atlanta. Now that is an airport! There were thousands of people scurrying everywhere. After landing on Concourse A we headed down a steep escalator, on a subway car, up a steep escalator and arrived at Concourse B. Quite a place for sure. We managed supper and then it was onto the last plane. This is the shot out of my window as we left New York!
On the last plane Atlanta to Sarasota!
During the day we each had 12 boarding passes (each place needed to update or change them LOL). We got to Sarasota at 11:03 and Molly Carter and George Pothier met us and took us home. Gus and Mary Evelyn had our place open and ready for business – even supplies for a great breakfast! We are happy to be here and even a long plane ride beats the three days in a car!!!!
