I don’t really have anything to write about during this past week, as I haven’t been feeling well and have spent my days in bed. However, I was feeling good last weekend, so Chuck and I took a little flight. We decided to check out the Waterloo Airport, as we hadn’t been there before. It was a rather hazy day, so the view wasn’t too great. It was quite smooth at least. Chuck snapped a few photos on our way there, including this one of joyous Hamilton:
I took the most direct route there, which really wasn’t the most enjoyable. We first had to speak with the Hamilton tower, which was really busy. Once past the Burlington Skyway, Hamilton asked me to call up Toronto Terminal. Of course, they were really busy too. It made it hard for Chuck and I to talk to each other, as we were constantly listening for my next message from the tower. Oh well, once we were passed off by Toronto, it was a nice, short flight to the Waterloo Airport.
It was quite a long taxiway over to Apron II, which is where the Runway Cafe was located.
The restaurant was quite nice. We scanned the menu and both notice the goulash, which was listed as a “local favourite.” We decided to split a bowl, plus Chuck had a burger and fries and I had a salad. The goulash (which I have never had before) was worth the flight in itself! Yummaroos!
After lunch, we climbed back into Vyctor and headed back home. I really wanted to check out the bridges over to the US, since it was a holiday weekend and the traffic would likely be insane. The night before, the wait time for the Queenston Bridge was 1 hour and 45 minutes! We headed south of Hamilton, passing through a of couple little rain showers on the way. Nothing like a free plane wash. The flight over to Fort Erie was about 55 minutes. The Peace Bridge wasn’t too bad, and neither was the Rainbow Bridge in Niagara Falls. They were busier than usual, but nothing like what we saw on the Queenston Bridge:
I don’t think I’ve ever been in a line-up that long to cross the boarder – yuck!
Not too much else to report. Like I mentioned earlier, I’ve spent most of this week in bed like a weak blob. Hopefully all of this rest will have paid off and I’ll feel better for the weekend.
Today’s symptoms: Really weak and more fatigued than normal. Fortunately, I did feel a bit better today than I felt yesterday.
