Day 12 – 25 September 2017 – McKinney, DFW airport, Orlando

Nothing really much to say about today, except that sitting around waiting is tiring, LOL.

Up, packed and checked out just after 7.30. Headed for Erwin Park yet again, basically just for another drive around as I really did like the place. Then down to another park that I had visited once but not since the special flat munzees cane out. There were a few there, lol 800+. I then headed out to JR’s ranch where I think Dallas was filmed, but not really sure as I never watched it. Anyway, a new munzee emerald garden has been started there, and as I probably won’t be back this way for a little while, figured I may as well get what was there.

Hit the motorway and headed off to return the rental car, caught the bus into Dallas Fort Worth airport and then checked in 5 hours early. Sat for a bit and then caught the skylink monorail that runs around the terminals. It takes about 20 minutes for a full circuit so did that twice one way round and then changed sides and went round once the other way!

The flight was on time, but very full and I had to stow my hand luggage nearly at the back of the plane, so basically I was last off as I had wait to collect it. The Captain and crew enjoyed looking through my BOAC Junior Jet Club log book and commented as such as I left the plane.

My suitcase was out very early so then on down to the Hertz car rental. This was funny as I could take any car I liked from zone 3! I just grabbed the first one, a Nissan with Texas plates and not much of a nose on it! Found the motel eventually, and dinner comprised of cheese, biscuits, an apple and some fruit & nut mix. However, very exciting, breakfast is included, so somewhere between 7 & 10 that’s where I’ll be, LOL.

Now that I am in Florida, the time difference is exactly 12 hours, so it’s 11.15 pm Monday night and 11.15 am Tuesday morning at home! Definitely bed time!!!!

Sorry, it’s not a good picture, sun in the wrong spot, but it is JR’s Ranch.
