Well Mike and I are on the road again. We flew out of Vancouver on Skywest Airlines in a cool plane from Bombardier called the CRJ700 or maybe the 900. There were only two seats on each side of the plane. Nice and roomy, good legroom, and comfy enough seats. We left a little late, but seemed to arrive here in Salt Lake City on time.

Flying in, it sort of reminded me of Las Vegas. Lots of mountains surrounding the city, with not a lot of greenery anywhere. It was sunny and warm when we arrived.

We leave here at 1 am to fly to Atlanta, then on to St. Maarten a couple hours later. There is free wifi here in Salt Lake City, so I’m putting a brief post up from here. Atlanta does NOT have free wifi, so I won’t be posting an update until late tomorrow (Friday) at the earliest, although I am not promising one.

So, first of three flights was nice. A good start. We’re looking forward to jumping in the ocean as soon as we can tomorrow! Mike commented that he thought this was the first flight we’d taken together where no kids were screaming!

ADDED ON FRIDAY:

We’re in Atlanta and I’m getting some free internet from a restaurant where we had breakfast. It was not a great breakfast, but the coffee was ok. Atlanta airport is a Boingo hotspot, and that’s 8 bucks, so I won’t pay that. Will make this short and not so sweet. The flight from Salt Lake city was so packed they asked people to take another flight – I think they needed six people to accept another flight. It was an ok flight, no screaming kids. But it was crowded an my seat mate kept falling asleep and taking half my seat haha.

And I discovered I forgot my charger for my Nook e-reader at home! Sigh – how dumb am I?? What a drag. Anyway – we leave here at 10, boarding at 9:20… then into St Maarten for 2:15. It’s a great day here in Atlanta. Talk soon!
