Getting started

Day One
On the one hand:  Burgi's luggage stuck in Atlanta (probably the hair mousse that looks like a pipe bomb), power outage in the hotel so no electricity and no elevator from our room on the 24th floor, forgot the adaptor plugs, 35Euro pizza in hotel sports bar, 93 degree heat.

On the other hand: first class airplane ride, thanks to John, a delightful young man at the Delta counter who arranged for luggage to be sent, Joyce has a year's supply of Clif bars in HER luggage, an astoundingly modern hotel that turns out to be five star with very accommodating staff, bought the last two train tickets to Leon from an employee at the train station who speaks Spanish, English AND French and was more than happy to explain things to us, and we have not been robbed, gotten lost or fallen...
