Jetsetter
Last night I traveled quite a bit, of course, only in my dream.
Mom, Dad, his coworkers, and I went to Boston. We had to ride the subway to Philly to catch our flight back. For some reason, once I reached Philly, I went back to Boston to have lunch with Mom. I don't know why she didn't come with us in the first place. Then I started to feel very guilty that I didn't stay and help Dad carry the luggage.
Somehow, I ended up in London. I had toast and strawberry jam at a sidewalk cafe, and I just sat there thinking how delightful it was to have toast and strawberry jam in England. It was pretty cheap too, even given the conversion rate (which I estimated to one US dollar to 1.64 British pounds*).
Then I moved to downtown Wichita and took several walks around English, Main, Lewis, and Market. They had torn down most of the buildings.
* Actual exchange rate at the conclusion of Feb. 23, 2001: 1.456 British pounds to one US dollar.
