1/20 -1/21 LA TI DA!!

When we arrived at Terminal Five, we reaped the benefit of my wonderful friend and traveling companion, Joan, scoring business class tickeets to Delhi. We checked in and were directed to our lounge for free food, alcohol, soft drinks, computer use, etc. Did I mention that the bathrooms were excellent? We liked it! Now on to the plane where we bypassed the hoards to barely be seated before scoring a beverage and a menu for 2 meals. When Joan mentioned she wasn't hungry I told her to get over it. There were 2 nice Indian food entries for us to try, not to mention an interesting starter of lentil dumplings with yogurt and tamarind chutney. Our seats have us face-to-face but after take-off one can put up a screen if one doesn't like the proximity of one's neighbor. There is a fluffy blankie, some socks, a warm washcloth, and....wait for it.....a reclining chair with a separate foot rest that allows a fully prone position when you're ready for a bit of a lie-down. Happy, happy legs. Ron and I will have to parlay those frequent flyer miles into a business class upgrade when we go to Egypt!
