Fri. Nov. 7
Marge Fasick drove us to the airport. Her brother-in-law "Fuzz" gave us a tour of the new fire fighting and emergency building at Chemung Co. airport. Left Chemung Co. on U.S. Air at 11:15 and arrived at JFK in New York at 11:50.
Had lunch at the International Buffet Restaurant. The food was average, but the price expensive. 23.75 + tip.
Spent hours walking around the international terminals. Thursday was very long. Finally boarded Pan Am 747 flight 72 at 5:50. Found out we were in Clipper Class - "free" drinks, headphones, etc. Plane had to wait for 70 passengers on delayed connecting flight. Finally off the ground at 7:00.
Very good white wine Le Pappillon de la Reine. Chicken dinner with pate, wine, rice, green beans, ice cream.
(Note: After this entry, there is a detailed 2 page list of expenses, including: Taxis, lunch, lockers, tips, bus fare, rooms, beer, drinks with Japanese men, show, postcards and souvenirs, laundry, cigars, etc. It notes at the beginning that all totals are in Deutsche Marks.)
