Saturday May 23

How to get home?? Hmm...
1. Wake up early pre-packed
2. Take the subway to the bus to the airport.

Subway - not as fun with suitcases. It is quite a lot of steps to navigate a 42lb suitcase (plus a purse and a bookbag). We took the subway from near our loft all the way to Queens. The subway went from underground to above ground. Very weird. We then waited for the bus in queens, with about 20 other people and all of their luggage. Lots of yelling and hurrying to the bus stop, in many different languages (Italian, Mexican, Chinese)... Standing on the bus is not as fun as standing on the subway. The bus SLAMS on the breaks. My arms got a good workout.
Finally make it to the airport, and we have to go outside to get onto the tiny plane. Blah! And of course I get stuck sitting next to the weird smelly guy. At least on the subway you can scoot away, on the plane you really can't do anything about it.

What a great trip... I can't wait to go back! :)
