up and away

Can you read the sign? No line up, that's for sure. I hope he takes full advantage. He sounded relieved when he called us from Chicago, or maybe I just felt relieved myself. He said there had only been eight first class chairs in the plane, and he was on one of them. But I don't know if he enjoyed it much, they had a lot of turbulence. He said he thought the pilot desperately needed some more practice. Rough landing too. Another winter storm, a biggie. But I guess he's out of reach of that one, he should be more or less halfway to Amsterdam by now. Arriving earlier than we thought, maybe I should try to get hold of our friend who is going to pick him up. Oh my god, what an experience. My nerves.
