Miscellaneous Ramblings

With as many millions of dollars as it cost to develop and produce modern aircraft you would think that the in-flight announcements would actually be audible and understandable.

The possible upside to more connections - it feels like less plane time as you get break times. 

Learned something new - 'Book Protected' seats. If you have missed a connection and are trying to get another flight and have found one but want to hedge on a better flight coming available - you can 'Book Protect' the first one you find, then work from there.

Unfortunately for Patti most Turkish Delight is made with Honey, not sugar, except for the cheap stuff. When explaining this to the dealers to see if they have a solution they all look at her quizically wondering what is wrong with this crazy woman then they try to sell her something else. Patti, being the fearless, then regretful, eater that she is, rolled the Delight Dice.

Mom is the ultimate photo bomber. Here she is with her umbrella.

Patti seems to find her way in every picture that one is trying to line up. She just needs to get on step closer and into the frame. Maybe it is her small phone screen, old contact prescription, or senial spatial awareness.

Water spigots are everywhere. Here is one in Goreme. The only thing like this that I have seen in Colorado is in Manitou Springs where the various outlets produce water with differing amounts of carbonation and other minerals.

Patti mathed out the cost benefit on the Turkey Stuff Superpass. This was an all access pass to all the museums, archeological sites, and cultural points of interest which allowed you to bypass the ticket lines with the added benefit of not feeling like you were shelling out for every single thing that you stepped foot into.
