Interesting Journey to the Airport

I don't know if your remember, but I brought two big suitcases weighing around 80 pounds each, one backpack weighing about 50 pounds, and one laptop. Since I got ripped off by the can on the way here four months ago, I decided that I would make up for it and take the metro... With all my things! I had to switch three times :) But I made it!

Something also happened along the way that kind of made me mad. Obviously most people would be flustered and disoriented carrying all of that stuff on the metro. So someone thought that they could try and pickpocket me!!! I am always very aware of my pockets on subways and noticed a little nudge from the guy standing next to me. I looked down and saw his hand move away from my leg. I looked him in the eye to let him know that I was aware and kept my eyes down, looking at my pocket. I saw and felt his finger slip into my pocket so I moved out of the way looked him in the eyes again and shook my head no. I put my hand in my pocket which made him look sad that I had caught him and then he got off the train... I can't believe people sometimes!

Anyways, I am in line at the airport and I have about two hours until my flight. I am a bit nervous because the lines are huge... I hope I make my flight!

  1. Good eye son. That would have been a drag if you wallet was stolen on the last day. You didn't make your flight. Bummer it was late and you have to stay one night in Germany. Have a great dinner.
