Arriving in Florence: Day One


Day One

Today we departed Kent at approximately 3:30 PM and we took a charter bus to the Detroit International Airport. When we got there we had to run to the terminal to make our flight. Through security I got my peanut butter confiscated because I had it in my carry-on. Haha! The flight attendants were very nice and helpful (and very good looking!) They were French woman and they knew how to speak French, English, and a few other languages as well! I found the flight to be quite uncomfortable.. luckily I sat next to Melanie- only due to the fact that they messed up our boarding passes (thank you Ted Roy). Were we able to watch movies and listen to music on the monitors on our seats on the plane- I didn’t get to finish the three movies I started haha. We had two meals- for dinner we had beef and pasta, a brownie, pudding, five grain salad, and water; for breakfast: OJ, yogurt, and a muffin.
