The flight before covid......
Let me preface this by saying under normal circumstances planes are my favourite way to travel. Quick, efficient, clean and not to forget the possibility of hot stewards on board! But not even this was enough to save this last trip. Had i known a pandemic was looming on the horizon, perhaps I would have made an effort to enjoy my last plane trip instead of complaining about it the whole way. However, in my defense there wasn't exactly anything to enjoy about that particular plane ride - it was tiring, sickening and mentally exhausting. It all began on 25th October 2019 when my mother embarked on the biggest adventure of her life. She decided to take her three children and her niece on a trip to Mumbai to visit their cousins. This was monumental because under normal circumstances she barely holds on to her sanity with her 3 kids, throw flying into the mix and things become real serious real fast. To say the trip flew by in the blink of an eye would be an understatement....
