Nothing else to do so I’ll post any exciting events during my almost 28 hour trip to Miami.
01:42 in Buenos Aires. My 2 check-in bags weighed 52 lbs and 34 lbs each (39 kg total). Didn’t get charged extra for size or weight checking in at Ushuaia. Ran into a girl I met at a hostel in Ushuaia where another cyclist was staying. We were on the same flight, we share the same world views, our plane seats were 1 row apart and our birthdays are on the same day! I am twice as old as she is (which she found rather amusing as I reached for my metamucil). The flight was uneventful except for everyone singing happy birthday to a flight attendant. There was even a birthday cake with lit candles (which seemed…umm… unusual on a plane at 30,000 feet–what if the sprinklers went off?). I have a 6 hour layover here. There are no lockers for luggage or plugs for my laptop. They kicked me out of the comfy chair in the cafe.
This is going to get long I see.
