So what happened was...

...I arrived at the airport and, to my simultaneous dismay and relief, they told me I should probably wait until tomorrow to leave. Chicago was not only windy, but rainy as well. I would have missed all my connections and had to stay in a hotel room at my own expense. Also, (and here comes the relief part) my bags were twenty-five pounds overweight ($200 fee)! Are you kidding me?!

So I went home and took everything out of the big red suitcase. Now, after a couple of hours and a glass of vino, I'm all re-packed and ready to go.

Packing check-list:
-Brand new, Razorback red digital camera? CHECK
-TOMS shoes? CHECK (bonus points b/c they say "The journey is the destination." What great travel kicks!)
-Reading material for the 7-hour layover? CHECK
-An appetite for Argentine gelato and street pizza? CHECK
- Map? Yeah right. The best part about a new city is how much fun you have getting lost!!












I leave Adams Field at 12:25pm and arrive in BsAs (Buenos Aires) at 9:20 the next morning. Believe it or not, I'm looking forward to last year's films, bad airplane food, and the hustle and bustle of the Houston airport. Anything to get me to Argentina!
