ROUGH DRAFT
At 0500, it’s 69. Though the alarm was set for 5 AM, we were both up at 0445. Sonia picked us up about 0615 and had us at the airport at 0745. We checked in and then waited for a wheelchair to take us through security (tip. $20) We waited for a cart to take us out to gate A25. At Bruegger‘s bagels, we had a couple of bagels with coffee and lemonade.
At 0935 our plane arrived from Jacksonville. Pushback was at 1050, 20 minutes late. Our gate in Charlotte for the Chattanooga flight has been changed to E8. We finally departed 27L at 1140. We landed in Charlotte at 1311. Lydia pushed me to gate E8 and we boarded at 1430 for the flight to Chattanooga. Pushback at 1440. The back of my left hand is bleeding for some reason. We departed on 19 L at 1501, and landed in Chattanooga at 1546, meeting up will Bill a few minutes later. Eduardo from Cuba took us in an Uber from the airport to the hotel downtown where we checked in. Only one elevator is operating and the hotel is full of boat passengers. We had drinks in the bar and then went to dinner at St.John’s Restaurant. We returned to the room about 8 o’clock and by 8:30. I was in bed.
