We finished packing after lunch today. The Subaru Outback was overloaded with the children’s luggage even before we added ours. We drove to Allentown and unloaded at Kezia and Titus’s house. The school children will be staying with them for the week.
We continued to Newark. Our suitcase was half a pound overweight. For those of you on a diet, that would be close enough. But the attendant said it wouldn’t fly. We moved a bag of smoked almonds to Julia’s backpack. Then in security Julia’s backpack was singled out for a hand search. We were relieved to find that the bag of smoked almonds and the can of mixed nuts were not explosives in disguise.
After a long walk in concourse C3, we found gate C138, but it was cordoned off until closer to boarding time. We met a few people on their way to a Perry Stone tour in Israel. We swapped stories with them as we waited.
To be continued…
