San Francisco – Here I come!!

I’m blogging live in the air next to my beautiful blogging buddy Brittany!

We realized we were on the same connecting flight weeks ago and decided to book seats next to each other. Having a chatty friend for a 4 hour flight should make the time fly by, right? 😉

I was up this morning at 4:00am for my 6:30am flight. I’m telling you, those 6:30am flights do NOT get any easier.

Luckily traffic is breeze that early in the morning and checking my bag in took all of two minutes. It actually took me longer to wait in the Starbucks line then it did to go through security.

So, MAJOR bummer! When I went to order my Awake Tea Latte with a pump of Pumpkin Spice the lady behind the counter told me they no longer had pumpkin spice. What?!?! I thought they would have the syrup around at least through the month of November. *sniff *sniff I asked for a pump of peppermint instead, but it just wasn’t the same. I’m not ready to give up my obsession with pumpkin spice just yet.

Flying cross country is always awkward when it comes to the food situation. Basically in my 6+ hours of traveling I will have left before breakfast my time and land around lunch time San Francisco time. This calls for two breakfast in my opinion. And some back up snacks just in case.

On my first flight I dug into breakfast #1: Overnight Oats topped with half a peach.

The overnight oats were pretty basic: 1/2 cup rolled oats, plain yogurt, honey peanut butter, chia seeds, and chopped dates.

I brought a mini travel spoon to enjoy my oats with.

I have an Almond Butter & Peanut Butter Sandwich to eat on the second flight as well as an AllieBar packed away in case I need it.

I realized today that I distribute my business card while traveling more than any other time. I’ve already handed three out this morning. One to the person who helped check my bag (I may have gotten a little too excited when i was telling him why I was heading to San Francisco this morning). One to the person sitting next to me on my first flight. And the other to a guy who was on both my first flight and my connecting flight and chatted with me between flights. A big HELLO to either of those three in case they actually went to the site. 😉

The moral of my story is: always travel with business cards! You never know when you’ll need them. 😉

My first flight dropped me off in Atlanta where I found the beautiful Brittany waiting at the gate.

Carolyn found us too!

We chatted during our lay over then boarded our flight out west.

Now we’re sitting tight, patiently a waiting our arrival in San Francisco. It won’t be much longer now!
