I started out this afternoon on my next summer adventure. https://player.vimeo.com/video/277382448“>Plane video tease.  To make this even more of an adventure, I will be  trying to do new things this trip. To start I  used a local taxis service for the first time, so I didn’t have to leave my truck in long term parking.  The was very little adventure from home to Houston… but a last minute gate change made it so I could only hit one pokestop in Houston Hobby… Oh, yes I’ve started Pokemon Go again and it will be part of the adventure. I even got my 3rd shiny pokemon at Dallas Love Field.  I should have screen shot all the Pokemon hanging out there.  Why I didn’t?  Well, I made it to Dallas from Houston without an issue although it was a close call.  I landed with just enough time to go to the bathroom and than board the next plane.  My luggage wasn’t so lucky.  And it wasn’t just mine, there was a small group of us hanging out in the “lost luggage area” in Love field.  Luckily, there is a flight every 30 minutes or so from Houston to Dallas and my luggage, along with the other passengers was on the next, next flight.

Luggage retrieved, I headed to the DART system and made use of the public transport system, bus to train to bus. Cost was $5 compared to taxi, uber, lyft, or any other method that was going to be $15 to $30… Yes, the trip took an extra 30 minutes, but I got to ride a train… The whole purpose for this trip.. Trains Trains Trains..

It was now time to grab something to eat… options very limited at the Hyatt Regency at DFW… The grouper sandwich was excellent though and the lent soup was decent.

Tomorrow, another plane ride and then….
