Fun WOW moment

Today I rode on an airplane for the first time in a few years.  The seatbelt had a ton of extra length.  I did not spill over the seat. I did not touch the woman next to me who did and when I put my tray table down it was nowhere near my belly.   Such a change from the last time!!  Now if the other two women had shut up and let me sleep, it would have been wonderful! 

The second flight was a turboprop flight from L.A. to San Diego and as those of you who fly know...the seating is much more compressed.  Still fit in my seat with no issues with seatbelt and tray table!

YAY!  I love my RNY!!

Thanks for listening!
Heather

That's wonderful Heather!  What is so interesting to me, is that most people never have  thoughts or fears like we do when traveling. Will our seat belt fit, who is going to sit next to me, will I be able to lower my tray??? Isn't it nice to just get on the plane, and not think about anything but your destination! What a milestone, I bet this will be a flight that you will never forget! Good Job, Happy Traveling, Leslie:)

Nope I don't think many people realize how we feel.  It's been awesome so far!

Thanks Leslie!

That's awesome Heather.

One of the reasons I don't fly is because of the tight seating.

WOOT WOOT!!! That's awesome Heather!

I so look forward to that WOW moment one day. As it is, I only want a window or aisle seat now so that I can try to aim my spillover away from other travelers.. but then end up with muscle aches by the end of the flight. lol.

Now enjoy beautiful, sunny So Cal!

Hugs,
Angie
