Gettin' on a jet plane
American customs sure are thoro! Everyone going through had to take off their shoes and belts, as well as the usual stuff of putting phones, wallets etc into the little box. I also had to take my laptop out of its case and send it through the x-ray machine. Which got me to thinking, "I think I'll have a play on my laptop when I get through there." So that's what I'm doing. As a bonus there's free wireless, apparently everywhere. It's pretty slow, but, as the saying goes, 'don't look a gift Internet in the mouse'. As I'm flying out from Florida in the afternoon, and there's a 5 hour time difference, I'll be landing in Manchester around 8am. My plan is therefore to sleep most the way, otherwise I'm going to be tired at the wrong times when I get back home. However, I'll try and squeeze a movie in - would be silly not to. Right then, just another 2 hours to wait...
