Needless to say, I’m a little exhausted considering my 30 hour journey home from my latest trip. The leg from Johannesburg to Atlanta was over 16 hours and allowed me to watch a few of the one word titles missed this past year like Joy, Carol, Creed, Spotlight and then to fill up the time added The Big Short.

If that wasn’t enough excitement this was also the last flight for the Captain flying the plane who was retiring after 30 years with Delta. On our approach to the terminal there were fire engines on both sides of the runway with water canons bursting over the plane as his salutation.
