Bad weather for air travel Saturday morning. But after some delays and fretting at JFK, we finally boarded our plane, waited a while longer on the tarmac and eventually took off, arriving about 3 hours late. Not too bad in the end, and one flight attendant made it her business to keep everyone informed while we waited. Information makes these things so much easier to take. Why it’s not offered more often is one of those mysteries of life.
By the time we’d figured out how to manage the rental car’s doodads, found the place, worked out how to get in, and foraged for dinner, there was only time for a brief appreciation of the sunset (will be remedied tonight I’m sure). Now we’re happily ensconced in our beachside apartment, drinking coffee and tea on the deck In the sea air (and needing fleece!). We chose this place partly for its temperature which is lovely after the terrarium-like conditions in NYC.
We’re looking forward to seeing my brother Jim and meeting his new girlfriend later today.
