I’m not one to judge people, at least not out loud, but I saw a couple on the plane trip back to Amsterdam that made me laugh. It was like they came out of a commercial for all the travel accessories you can find from Brookstone. They had it all:
- eye masks
- banana pillow
- traveling socks (yes….stores sell special socks for travel)
- Bose headphones (I hate how they have the glaring red light to let everyone know that it’s on. At least make a green light on the left ear and red on the right like they do on boats.)
- ipod with multi-connector headphone outlet so that both could watch the same movie
- And the Almighty GuideBook to Paris (where my flight was heading to)
haha…I can only imagine what they had in their bags, but I’m sure it’s the other half of Brookstone products. I always pass by the store and say, “oh that would be cool to have for travels, and so would that, .etc” But then I realize that I have to lug all the extras around and that’s more than enough to say no.
But apparently not everyone feels like this. Definitely a photo moment when they were sleeping with their mouths open 
And another thing I noticed is that on all my flights using US-based companies….they always serve chicken. Chicken or Pasta, chicken or pork, chicken or bananas. What’s up with chicken? It is the staple of the air industry? Maybe it b/c it’s a meat that doesn’t conflict with cultures, but how about throwing a fish bone or two our way just to mix it up? haha….my parents would be so proud of me for promoting fish.
