I’m at SFO airport awaiting the boarding to Japan. Getting ready to travel, especially internationally and for a long trip is always such a pain UNTIL I get to the airport. It is then I am excited. The pain part is packing, getting the house in order, locked, making sure the plants are watered and…… Continue reading Tokyo Trip 2018

Flight Delay in Charlotte NC
I’m here in the Charlotte Airport and we’ve been delayed due to weather for four hours. A terrible storm went through the airport and I think this is only the second time I’ve been in an airport that stopped all traffic due to inclement weather. I learned that when the flashing light outside turns red…… Continue reading Flight Delay in Charlotte NC
Asheville North Carolina Trip
It is 1:22 PM and I’m at CLT. The two week vacation is now over and I’m heading back to California.

We arrived last Saturday and…… Continue reading Asheville North Carolina Trip

I love history and researching Montego Bay learned that one of the only surviving plantation estates is Rose Hall. According to my research the only reason it survives is that former slaves were afraid to…… Continue reading The White Witch of Rose Hall
Trip to Paso Robles
Last weekend was a three day holiday due to President’s Day so we decided to take a trip south. We left on Saturday morning arriving in Monterey around 10: 30 AM to visit the Monterey Bay Aquarium. It is good to get there early before the crowds of tourists who usually show up around noon.…… Continue reading Trip to Paso Robles
