"A Long Day"

Fri., October 27, 2006

Changing hemispheres and continents on the same trip makes for a long day. A really long day. Nashville to Detroit to JFK-NYC to Dakar (where?) to Joburg to Cape Town. Eighteen hours of floatation explanation, seat back and tray table instruction, TSA security lines, airplane food, and baggage claim.

One bright spot. After racing through the JFK Airport in New York to catch my South African Air flight, I was met with huge smiles and contagious laughter of the African flight attendants. Why do those Africans smile so big and laugh so much? Their smiles and laughter immediately erased all my travel stress. They are in close competition with Filipinos for the title of the world's happiest and nicest flight attendants. The Americans are a not-so-close 48th in the competition.
