I finally made it to Dominica.

Only took me two days.

Because of where I live in deep South Texas, I am often forced to fly a day early to get to most of my destinations, just in case a flight is delayed.

Which sometimes happens.

Airlines are not perfect, they are full of flaws.

When I get to chatting with my travel buddies, we can sit down and trade horror story, after horror story of the crap we often go through to get from point A to point B on a plane.

Airlines, airports, customs, TSA -long lines, canceled flights, lost luggage… All can be a nightmare sometimes.

But…in the end, I don’t mind.

To me, airplanes are highways to the world!

I love them, despite their many flaws.

This morning I woke up in a hotel in Miami, and now I am in a hotel on a beautiful island in the Caribbean.

I get to meet interesting people and see interesting places.

Monday morning I will be in/on the water looking for sperm whales to swim with.

Tomorrow is Sunday and I have the day for me. I am not sure what I want to do yet.

Explore the island… or go shore diving?

Not sure?

But thanks to a plane… these are my options.
