chair 6 – final

My six chairs in the sky travel concluded a couple of days ago, when I boarded the aircraft and flew to Atlanta.

For the trek home, we departed early Wednesday morning, bound for Vagar once again. Flight departure was at 8am, dictating an early morning drive in the dark and in the rain. It was tough.

Morning Dawn for take-off.

Next stop, Copenhagen.

With an eight-hour layover, we accepted an invitation for coffee from the young woman who had been our barista the past two trips to the Faroe Islands. She now lives in Copenhagen and is studying to become a doctor.

What fun to hail a taxi and be transported along the streets of Copenhagen…

…to meet Zoe for delicious coffee and delightful conversation.

We returned to the airport for a long trek to the gate and the flight to Frankfurt.

After spending the night in Frankfurt, we boarded Lufthansa flight 440 for the 10 1/2 hour flight to Houston. The take-off was complete with the familiar 747 shimmy.

An overnight at my friend’s home, then my flight home.

One thing I’ll never forget is how I paid for absolutely everything using Apple Pay on my iPhone. Not once did I take out a coin or a bill from my wallet. Merchants and customer alike loved this easy way to pay!!

Plans for this travel made long ago, allowed anticipation to grow and grow. A lovely way for my friend to move into retirement and then experience lift-off literally.

More sky chairs to come.

Traveling mercies.
