The day went pretty much as planned. We got up at our regular time and ate a leisurely breakfast. We said goodbye to the pigeons and dove. We made sure everything was in order and our Airbnb host had already arrived by 9:20 AM. We requested an Uber and a wheezing, corpulent driver in a tiny car arrived. My suitcase went in the back and Jay rode beside his and I used the passenger front seat.
We whizzed to the airport and had our two boarding passes in hand by 10:30 AM. We had ample time to wait in the Mazatlan International Airport. It wasn't too busy with a number of flights going to Mexico City. Our 12:34 departure left early for Dallas.
Dallas/Fort Worth airport is huge but we funnelled through customs, put our bags into the domestic luggage collection and went to find our unknown gate. We took the elevated train from D to A terminal. We arrived just as our flight to Seattle started boarding. We had planned to get some lunch but did not have that option.
The flight took off early and arrived earlier into Seatac. We are staying in the Days Inn on the hotel strip. Their shuttle bus picked us up. It is kind of run-down but everything seems satisfactory, thankfully, the noisy room heater included. This climate surely isn't Mexico's.
We were pretty hungry as we'd not eaten since breakfast. Well, there were a couple of cookies and a short, little bottle of water onboard our second flight. Unfortunately, everything, even the Denny's, was closed at 10:15 PM. We ate the delicious Oven-Roasted Chicken sandwich, which Jay says contains 10% chicken, soya, and flavoured wood chips. Now, we will sleep well.
