Greetings from the friendly Delta skies! I can’t believe that I’m already flying again after only returning from Los Angeles four days ago! Between September and October I’ll log 16 legs of flights on Delta!
I slept like a rock last night and had zero desire to wake up when the alarm went off. Knowing myself all too well, I hopped out of bed quickly as I knew I’d go back to sleep if I didn’t. I always fear snoozing through my alarm on a travel morning.
By 7:30, I was through security at LaGuardia chatting with a co-worker who was flying back home this morning. His flight was supposed to leave at 6:30 from my same gate but was delayed. It was such a fun surprise to know someone in the terminal at this hour.
I spent the rest of the time catching up on the news and enjoying some quality time with an iced coffee and my Kindle.
I normally prefer green tea but the airport’s coffee shop, which is adorable by the way, only had hot tea which had to steep. I didn’t want to deal with the hassle or possible mess of trying to steep the tea and then transfer it to ice.
The LaGuardia Delta terminal continues to amaze me throughout it’s renovation! There is now a coffee shop, pizza kitchen, burger joint, health and natural section, and a full hot bar featuring oatmeal and toppings during the morning hours!
A banana and small portion of oats only cost $4 which isn’t too bad considering it was in an airport!
The simple addition of a dash of brown sugar, cinnamon, and yellow raisins gave a boring cup of oats a complete makeover! I need to remember how far a small portion of brown sugar goes in providing an oatmeal flavor update!
My plane down to Charleston is a long and lean jet, only featuring 96 seats and no room for luggage on board with the passengers. Luckily I snagged a window seat by myself which means there is plenty of room for reading, sleeping, and curling up with my huge pashmina.
See you in a few days New York coastline! I’m ready to see some warm, South Carolina marsh and coastline!
