Joys of travelling

Jindivick seems a long way away. I left my garden just jumping out of its winter drabness.





Wilbur sits very still and the dogs run right past without seeing him.


It is always a horrible feeling to realise that all the luggage from your flight has arrived at the carousel except for yours! There is a nasty moment when you think someone else has taken your case. Then you just follow procedure and queue up at the airline luggage counter. My case had not left Los Angeles. It arrived at the hotel at 2 a.m. after flying via Atlanta to Cincinnati.

Amie, who works for Equine Canada in Para Equestrian, was not so lucky. When she flew from Ottawa to Toronto and then on to Cincinnati she had to pick up her bag at Toronto airport and take in through Customs before boarding the plane. Her bag was not there and then she had  problems clearing customs without her luggage. She still does not have her luggage 36 hours later. 

We are having a pre-WEG training camp. We move to WEG on Saturday. It would be nice to think in time to catch some of the cross-country. I think it will be a matter of 'so near and yet so far'. Time will tell.
