After a 3:30 wakeup to catch our 5:50 flight, we end up in the front row on Southwest. Being the nice guy that I am, I take the middle seat and give my wife the aisle. Doing well until friggin Andre the Giant plops his oversized body next to and on me. This guy had to be 6'10" 375#. Apparently, as long as you can squish your torso between the armrests, you are free to take up 1/2 the seat next to you by your massive shoulders. Not cool. I was looking forward to snuggling on the plane, but not with him. I put up with that for a bit, then moved back to a half empty row towards the back.
After an uneventful flight from Orlando, we landed in Mobay on time around 12:20.
Not knowing how the wheelchair assist thing worked, I had booked us Club MoBay just to cover my bets. As it turns out, we didn't need the Club, but hundreds of others were probably wishing they did as we passed them by on the way to the front.
Minutes later, we're in Ashton's car heading towards the Pork Pit. Figured we didn't want to wait over an hour to get to Bigga's, where we usually stop. The food was excellent at the Pit and very convenient.
After a brief stop in Green Island for some supplies and to change money, we're at Idle Awhile, where our suite awaits.
First things first, we prepare a sub and then head down to the bar for our free welcome drink and to dip our toes. Ahh, the nice warm Caribbean, we've missed you.
- Have a blast Doc!
