Message:: [QUOTE="Deacon Ray, post: 2810065, member: 81896"]Great account of your flight, TIF! I never would have imagined that you were anyone other than a very cultured world traveler from your knowledge and appreciation of exquisite numismatic art. You’re a very unique person to be admired! Anyway, I remember when I traveled to Mexico City with my Dad. We flew on Aeromexico which was really a very friendly and excellent airline. When I thought that we were preparing to land in Mexico City I looked out the window and saw the ocean out both sides of the plane. I said to my dad “Mexico City is nowhere near the water! What's going on?” My stomach felt like it was in my throat by this time. My dad was his usual expressionless and cool self and shrugged his shoulders. I looked around the plane at the mostly Mexican American passengers and tried to read their expressions. Some of them looked a little anxious but not overly so. Finally I blurted out to the Mexican flight attendant in the aisle and several seats ahead of us—“Are we landing in Mexico City?” She smiled and said “No—first Acapulco.” With that my panic melted away and my stomach returned to where it belongs.
