A slight disappointment ...

After almost 5 hours in Newark Airport, Sparkling Alice & Wolf Girl boarded another plane to embark on the second leg of their trip ... unfortunately, by the time they were boarded there was no room left in the overhead bins for their carry-on luggage ... so they spent just over 5 & a half hours in rather cramped conditions with various bags around their feet, & coats & hoodies on their laps ... this was not good as the temperature on the plane was something akin to the climate in the Bahamas ...!

Also not good was the onboard entertainment situation ... gone were the free movies, TV shows & games, with which we whiled away the hours on the first leg ... to be replaced by pay-to-view channels ... so we spent the journey in another, possibly more industrious way ... catching up on some much-needed sleep...!

A short taxi-ride later ... & we are now happily camped at the Ramada in downtown Seattle ... having showered & attacked the Pringles & Chewy Rocky Road Clusters ... it's now time for bed!

Tomorrow is another day ....! ;o)
