On flights to london, one often gets used to the service quality. The orlando flights are not that bad either. However not all new york flights are this great and neither the las vegas flights. You are unlikely to find quality service on cheap flights anywhere.

It was a great weekend for sailing the Daytona Beach, Florida area. If you were willing to brave the weather you were treated to uncrowded waterways. There were scattered showers Sunday but we were able to dodge most of them. We headed north and caught the tail end of one storm heading east out over the Atlantic and enjoyed the storm generated winds. To the south of us another storm passed by and we could no longer see the bridge due to the squall activity. By the time we turned around to come back this storm had passed. Very little boat traffic on the intracoastal waterway made for an enjoyable outing. With the passing of Labor Day we are looking forward to more days like this!
