Well.....Jackson's Nanny (who was our maid until he was born) is from El Salvador. She came to the U.S. when she was 15 years old and hadn't been back in nearly 20 years. She got her green card (no small feat, BTW) in November, which means that she could leave the country and get back in. So, I gave her my UA FF miles so that she could go home and visit her family.

<<Probably I should have bought tickets to the European city I haven't visited at all and want to, Barcelona. But...>> I was in Barcelona in 1970. In those days you could get a rum and coke for 35 cents. An 8 oz glass would have 5 ounces of rum, 2 oz of coke and an ice cube. The place where I ate supper all 5 nights, I ordered something different each time and every night I wound up with a butt steak, a piece of squirrel, a fried egg and a roll. The water had sand in it and even brushing your teeth with it would give you the green apple quick steps. The toilet paper was hard and corrugated which didn't help that situation. And the pigeons!! Feed one and 100 would swarm you. I mean land on you and fight for the food. Back then every thing was closed from noon until 2. That was nap time.
