We're once again sitting in an airport waiting for a flight. I was thinking about the international system of having three letters to indicate each airport. Atlanta is, of course, ATL and Singapore is SIN. Airports in some countries still use the codes for colonial names of cities - Yangon is RGN and Kolkata is CCU. Atl is "water" in Nahuatl, the Mexican language - we get our word chocolate from xocolatl, "bitter water".
I saw a kid in a stroller outside the smoking lounge, waiting for his mom. Made me glad I managed to quit smoking.

I remember your needing to smoke way back when we traveled together. Glad you were able to quit. Thinking of you and enjoying the pictures you've posted.
