6 hours in Chicago, then to London
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’tdo than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” -Mark Twain
Since it was snowing this morning in Chicago, we used a weather waiver in order to get an earlier flight. The thought was to get me into Chicago and then worry about delays once I’m here with the others on the group flight. My bags were barely under the maximum weight limit. One was 49.5, the other was 48 (the maximum is 50 pounds). I checked those as well as brought a backpack. I probably brought too much stuff, but I tried to pack items good for layering. I also brought 2 umbrellas. This may be excessive, but we’ll see how the weather is. I used onebag.com to pack in the bundle method. Hopefully, it will reduce wrinkling.
As for now, I bought some wireless internet and am trying to find out what to do with the 6 hours that I have before my flight boards at 8:20 or so. I’m at a kiosk to charge my computer, but the seats leave a lot to be desired. Everyone uses internet these days. They should provide enough plugins at comfortable locations. If I didn’t have to wait here for a minor eternity, then it would be a non issue.

The next time that you hear from me, I will probably be jetlagged in London. Nothing better!
