The trip home to Boulder from Homer wasn’t bad at all, just a couple of days after the new security restrictions were put in place. We’re an adaptable species. In the Anchorage airport passing through security to catch the midnight flight there was a really friendly and cheerful person directing passenger at the security line. It’s amazing how contagious moods and attitude can be, and this woman made the whole experience pleasant while still being efficient.
We did arrive in Denver quite parched from no extra bottles of water and with chapped lips from no Carmex — but without any explosions, which is good.
We had planned a big trip to London to celebrate my 40th birthday, and have canceled that trip, partly due to security concerns and partly due to the unknown inconvenience factor. I’m sure we’ll do something celebratory instead, but not involving international travel.
