    Hi Jacob and Jenn. Your patience in all situations is admirable Jacob. Just a salad for dinner would make me hangry. And I’m sure the 3 hours wait for a car rental won’t be going into your happy times journal. But through it all you had Jenn to keep you company and that would be ok with me. Safe travels to both of you.

    I'm a white guy, with olive skin (Mediterranean family) I'm in law enforcement and I'm a military vet but the TSA treats me like my last name is Bin Laden, no exceptions. I've learned I'm always going to secondary inspection and normally the bomb sniffer air blowing machine dealie, every time. It's a bit embarrassing. Great video Jake, enjoy your travels!

    I only fly Southwest. I flew over the holidays, when the whole mishap was happening. They gave me good incentives for changing my flight date to a later date to free up a seat, as well as enough miles for a full round trip flight and then some. I was able to fly for free round trip for Mother’s Day to see my daughter. They also send me drink coupons, and they also gave me $100 credit for a flight because I didn’t get a special rubber duck for an inaugural flight to San Jose, CA. Would any other flight be this good to it’s customer? 🤷‍♀️👏😅❤

    I was a flight attendant and it's amazing what those suitcases go through. So funny you caught that! The lightening is normal. I've been on planes hit by lightning more than I'd can remember. They pilot will do their best to avoid it. Planes are designed to get hit. The lightening will flow off the wings and it's over before you knew it happened.

    I was flying from Dallas (DFW) to Midland (MAF) which is a short flight (300 miles). There was a snow and lightning storm (pretty weird) and the plane was hit by lightning- this sounds amazingly like a hammer hitting a metal trash can. The lights went out (it was a mid-day flight) and about every alarm within earshot of passengers went off for at least 5 minutes. We survived : )

      That sounds fun. I flew from DFW to San Angelo a few years ago and hit a nasty storm as we were descending into Angelo. The turbulence was insane, people were lifting out of their seats every now and then. It got so bad we they actually determined it wasn't safe to land and went back to Dallas until the storm cleared

I've been through it, and I kept an eye out, but I didn't experience anything. I didn't even get the sense of discomfort around the horse statue. Still worth keeping an eye on. Also, i have always referred to the skybridge as the skybridge.

Like when I was studying abroad last year getting back into Spain from Nice, my bag could go in the over head and since it was Schengen (basically countries in that agreement don't need to clear customs I didn't need to go through medical screening or baggage claim and it was like a blissful moment vs outbound where I screwed up security hard, nearly left my Passport in Madrid, had to check the bag on the flight, it was raining in Frankfurt and the trains were a mess so I didn't get to go to Rulantica and couldn't get a refund for it)

    Here a few towns south of Denver about 3 hours away you could come to Pueblo, here you could find a lot of info about the steel city; you can come walk the river walk by the whole train depo. There’s a documentary on RUclips that maybe if you have time to watch you can see that Walt Disney had actually came here as well back in the day & had inspiration for his Disney land while watching/helping his brother build for train tracks. There’s a lot of native history as well, neat shops for Jen and yourself to visit. Antique shops/toy shops like the land of oz, it has some cool old toys and collectibles.:) it’s a small town with some small things to do, it would be neat to have you explore here a bit and see if you found anything interesting to do! If yous get hungry yous can always go down to passkey and get a special!

    Fly by night, is always a bit magical. You needn't worry about the lightning. It is normal for a plane to fly through the lightning, nothing disturbing is expected to happen (except in that specific episode ot the Twilight Zone, where a spooky creature lands on the wing of an airplane, giving John Lithgow a complete mental breakdown). In fact, you had a little extra luck because you could see some of the red stripes. These are lightning bolts that shoot up, out of the atmosphere.
    It is a very long time ago that i flew in a plane over America, and your video brought back some nice memories of that. Really liked it, thank you.

    Hi both thanks so much for filming this trip..I have really enjoyed it.. As you may know I am not the best with heights and flying.. However needs must and I get through it.. It is good for me to see you both taking flights. Nice and calm and easy hassle free.. Just a normal everyday thing.. No need to stress.. Have a great time.. Looking forward to seeing some of your trip..All the best to you both. Marie XX
