Chicago to London to Nairobi
Getting ready to go on a longer trip is the hardest in the hours before you leave. The plants need to be watered. The sump pump needs checking. A prescription was not filled…I did better than most times before a trip and just stopped obsessing about everything. The drive to Chicago was simple and Jeff reserved parking so that made it easier. Checking in on British Airways, the person at the flight counter gave us directions to the airport lounge, which I thought was a mistake, since we don’t belong to any of the lounge clubs. Still, we thought we’d give it a try, and when the lounge scanned our boarding passes…we were in! I love airport lounges in the very few times I have been in one. It is so much calmer, and the free food and drink is always appreciated. Then Jeff looked online, and discovered that we had been upgraded to Business Class. With sleeping pods. Warm hand towels.
