Day 0 - Departure

 6:30am flights are not my favorite. Knowing there were a few large trips on the books for the next year I splurged and picked up an American Express card which gives me free access to the airport lounges. Silly as it may sound for some, having space to comfortably sit and grab a quick bite to eat alters the entire flying experience.

Very empty airport at 5am

Delta club decorated nicely for the 4th

Who knew when there's fog you can't takeoff. Here's the view for my 50 minute delay while we wait for fog to lift

At least I had a row to myself

A hot, muggy, thunderstormy 4th in NYC

JFK was the first airport to have space where you could be technically outside and enjoy the tarmac. Sadly, due to thunderstorms it's closed today

Walking into the plane was this billboard. So true!

Bulkhead premium economy seat for me (and yes I always bring my pillow for long flights)

We have a doggo joining us on this 8hr flight

Ok, time for bed. The sun is still high so it never fully sets
