And We're Off

We left RIC right on time at 1:20 this afternoon. We had a beautiful flight up the East Coast with great views of Manhattan from 32,000 ft. 

We have quite a bit of time before our 6:15 flight to Dublin so we decided to have an early dinner at Legal Seafood. The soft shelled crabs were actually

pretty good for airport food. Since Aer Lingus wanted 20€ for dinner on the plane, this was a much better choice. 

The beer in front of Therese is mine. She says that she will not drink until dinner tomorrow evening when we are in St. Jean Pied de Port, FR. Yes, a nice Bordeaux will be great with dinner if we can stay awake. 

Therese's plan is to take an Advil PM when she gets on the plane, put on her compression socks, put in her ear plugs and settle in for the flight to Dublin. Hopefully, she will get some sleep so that she is not too crabby tomorrow. We'll see. 

After the overnight flight to Dublin, we will transfer to RyanAir for a flight to Biarritz, FR. From there, we take a taxi to St. Jean. With luck, we will make all of our connections and arrive some time tomorrow afternoon. 

We will be boarding in a few minutes, so I'll post something more along the way.
