Sunday was spent visiting the Cape Cod area up to the north at Provincetown. Starting from Boston, head south and take a moment to stop at Plymouth. It has a handful of things to see.

\n

Plymouth Rock was the landing place of the Pilgrims in 1620. It isn’t all that spectacular, but it is worth a visit as it was part of the history of the Pilgrims

On a short stay at JFK on Saturday, I decided to venture into the city to see Ground Zero on the anniversary of the tragic day many people lost their lives.

\n

I wanted to visit the World Trade Center site for my second time to honor and reflect on my journey this month. Flying is a big part of this journey, and every time I go through security and get on a plane, I think about the day I watched a terrible thing happen. It is in the minds of all of us who watched or experienced it.

JetBlue flight #1072 on Saturday from Richmond to JFK was supposed to be a simple flight. Instead, security confiscated some liquid fruit snacks that had made it from SFO through a number of checkpoints this week. I hope security enjoys them. I will have to find an alternate nutritional breakfast option for the rest of the month.

\n

Then the flight was delayed coming in due to air traffic control and weather. Fortunately everyone boarded in record time and we were off the ground by 11am.

\n

Jill and Cesar were the flight attendants this morning. Captain Bill tried to make up for the delay and got us to JFK just after noon. The skies were beautiful with a few small clouds here and there.

Making the most of my flying opportunities, my connecting flight at JFK was JetBlue flight #1073. Blue getaways, a small Embraer 190, was more roomier than the A320s that I’ve been flying on.

\n

The flight was very quick, less than an hour of flight time. Captain Chris and James flew a calm flight with pretty clear skies. The cabin crew was Linda and Al. Because of this short flight, we didn’t get to see much of the crew. The express service was very fast and efficient.

\n

One interesting thing I noticed on the Live Map, the graphic of the airplane is so big that the wings reach about a third of the east coast. The scale is definitely off, with such a tiny airplane. Attention to the little details, that’s all.

A quick visit to Burbank for the Tonight Show with Jay Leno was a fantastic experience. I didn’t realize how much of Burbank is filled with television production companies. Every block seems to be one. NBC, ABC, Warner Bros. to name just a few.

\n

I exchanged my reservation for a ticket to the show around 1pm. I was 22nd in the line. While waiting in the line, I met a number of non-AYCJ people traveling from different places. One couple was on a road trip heading home to Austin.
