Day 3 - Booking Flights

I always am paralyzed when booking flights.  It is such a stressful situation for me, and when I make that final decision and push pay, I feel a little rush.  Is it because I made a decision, or because I realize I am really going on the trip?  Maybe the indecision and stress of getting those airline tickets are due to the fact that I am committing myself to a trip, and it is exciting and scary.

For ten years travel was difficult, and I did everything I could to avoid it at all costs.  So there is definite residual fear of traveling that I have.  I stress out checking in, going through security and boarding, and going to the bathroom on the plane.  For short hops going to the bathroom is not an issue, I can hold it a looong time.  But international flights, nope, have to go at least once.  And because you are suppose to drink alot while on the plane, I should be going more often, but I try not to drink too much to keep that bathroom run to a minimum, but then I worry about clots - argh.

And then the farting.  I fart a lot anyway, but I learned that air travel naturally causes gas, so yea my fartiness just gets worse.  And keeping it from invading the whole cabin, well lets just say my farts smell like roses (not).

Then I have to worry about getting to the destination, like on this trip, we have to take a ferry to an island, than take another ferry to another island, and the ferries like only run once a day, and ...

It is the adventure of it all.
