The Canada Option

     After a lost wallet, a cellphone data snafu, an over-sized luggage fiasco, and not being able to sit together, we were off on the first leg of our Scottish boyfriend odyssey! Unfortunately, our string of bad luck had not quite ended. During a layover in Toronto, I battled an overly aggressive vending machine after it sent mixed messages about my credit card.  A kind Canadian onlooker nodded sympathetically as I explained concerns regarding my information being used to buy Fritos for the whole airport. 

     Note to self:  If Scotland does not work out, try Canada!  It’s closer and the American dollar is really strong right now!  Plus, providing chips IS always a nice icebreaker. ;-)
