Long Weekend in Toronto
As often as I can, I go back to Toronto to visit family and friends. Lately, I've been taking the red-eye flight LAX-ORD-YYZ in order to maximize my visiting time, despite the fact that usually no good comes from taking a flight that departs long after my bedtime.
Thinking about this trip report, which was started at 6am at ORD, seat 3A of UAL's 757 to YYZ (finished at 3pm, MDR, CA lounge chair 10BP (By Pool)), I realized that only Haiku would do. No flight attendants; they're delayed in Seattle. Leave half hour late I'm trying to sleep "Miss Mimosa" beside me Keeps ordering them! I'm trying to sleep We've got the good turbulence Announcements SO loud Turn the volume down! Stop ordering Mimosas! I'm trying to sleep! Now we are landing Hot towels: not hot, not wet Coffee! RCC Next '57 Why I have seat opponent on such empty flight? Land at YYZ Carlito comes to get me Visit family BBQ with friends Talking and laughing 'til late Wow, this sure is fun! Day at Jon's cottage New 21-foot Chriscraft Fast, excellent boat! Had such a good time did not check my plane ticket Left for airport late... Who misses a flight for such a stupid reason? Well, that would be me. Memorial Day Call United and panic Phone agent useless! Airport is better Agent got me on good flights My upgrades came through! Biz class, jumbo jet with surly flight attendants Bet FC nicer! Flight arrived early Wait almost hour for gate, then 20 for cab. Lion in Vegas Time for me to get some sleep. That was 5-star trip! |

Since I'm bad with poetry, I'm not going to even try haiku! But I'll still give a nice thanks reply:

I guess Haiku is allowed, but I have been warned against posting a trip report to Massachusetts using Limericks.
