Truth is reality shows are for people who cannot Science Fiction. The Nebula Chronicles: Volume I – If Star Wars and the Harry Potter books were combined, you might get The Nebula Chronicles. Entertaining, family-friendly stories and exciting characters. This book is great for both my 13 year old granddaughter and my 11 year old grandson. Its a coming of age book filled with danger, adventure and courage. This book will feed their mind and their imagination.

Did You Know, Time of the Season, Travel

Let’s Fly SWISS #Economy #FlySwiss #ILoveSwiss

I love to travel.  However, traveling long  distances would always make my stomach churn.  I mean who likes sitting down in a airplane seat for hours and hours.  Not me!

Every airline promises that comfortable seat with claims of making your long flying time comfortable, but I have found this promise not to be so.  Until, Swiss Airlines!

SWISS My first air time meet with Swiss was this July when I flew Swiss from Israel to the U.S.  A flight that was very long, long, long – so long I thought I’d never get home.  But Swiss Airlines helped make the trip feel less lengthy and less long and annoying.  They offered a wide range of movies (140 films), TV programs, and games that helped me forget the flying time.  Their attendants would graciously walked the aisle offering water to the passengers, helping assure that dehydration doesn’t happen while you are in the air.

Meals on a plane always come in some type of box, and can taste just like the container the food comes in.  Not on Swiss Air!  Swiss offers two hot meals.   The meal tasted like it was made fresh, just for you. Towards the final hours of the flight the attendants come around offering a snack.  The snack was a cup of chocolate ice cream, and a Real Italian Cuisine Hand Held Pizza.  YUMMY!  That ice cream was so refreshing to have after hours sitting in one position.   The Panzerotto I took home.

Let’s talk about their plane seats.  I am 5 feet tall, and still find airplane seats to small.  Not on Swiss!  Even with the person’s seat at recline I still had room to stretch my legs.  Swiss Air didn’t make my travel back home from Israel any shorter, but, they did make the travel most comfortable.

Swiss where have you been all my short  travel life?

I’ll be flying back to Europe, maybe, in 2020.  I will be flying with Swiss Air.  Oh, least I forget, prior reaching the destination (JFK) attendants came and offered “Thank You for flying Swiss” chocolates.  

 

If your thinking of flying any time soon check out Swiss Airlines, it will be  a treat

Skyscraper Movie and Fried Mozzarella Sticks Birthday

My grandson Liam turned 11 last week and we celebrate with a family movie and lunch. Liam loves fried mozzarella sticks and spaghetti, so we headed over to Leo’s Restaurant and Bar  for some lunch before the show.   Me, I love a Shrimp Salad Wrap and watching the little guy put on a show for us before the show.

Skyscraper was the birthday movie choice and it is a action packed movie right from the start with a lot of excitement and cliff hanging moments.  All this action and noise did not stop Caleb from falling asleep right after he finished his popcorn. The rest of us were glued to our seats and cheering Will Sawyer on to the finish.

Liam got the big surprise in the morning when he saw the ACER XFO Series Gaming Moniter from the family. Now that is an excited kid gamer!!! Wishing you an amazing year and a very Happy Birthday. Love you to the moon and back forever.
