June 22, 2015. San Antonio, Texas. Slow and Steady.

Last year, when flying to Nova Scotia,  we got stuck in Newark.  The flight to Halifax was cancelled as were all the other flights so by the time we were looking for a hotel room for the night, everything was full.  We took the shuttle to the biggest hotel, The Marriott, and basically begged for a room.   Even though the hotel was full, they found us a room.  This year we are making our trip slowly and leaving nothing to chance.

First we have come to San Antonio and will enjoy the company of the girls and David and Suzanne.   I drove from the lake so now will recover tomorrow and get organized for the flight on Wednesday.  Suzanne will drop us at the airport.  In Newark,  Ken and I will check into the Marriott Airport Hotel to stay the night.  You can see the hotel from the airport but it requires a shuttle bus to get us there.   Most likely we will order room service for dinner as we like to stay away from crowds of people.

On Thursday, we will steadily continue our journey and fly to Halifax on the early flight.   Mr. Gaskell will pick us up at the airport and take us home to Western Head.  These days, the only way that is reasonable  for us is to use the slow and steady mode.  We hope it works.
