Travel to Europe Part IV

The stylish eye masks the airlines give you on long flights can double as a headband or pirate eye patch. You might be invited to a costume party while you are there, so don't throw it away.

Bung in my bung hole! I didn't know they GAVE those things to you! Would've been frickin' awesome to know when I was traveling at like 6:00 am, and trying to sleep while some nincompoop in the row in front of me was the ONLY PERSON on the plane with their window wide open, on the side with the sun coming directly in--TOOL!

I will surely ask for one next time.

Unfortunately Jay, I think you can only get them on international flights.

Does Texas count as international? It's almost Mexico™

Ask immigrations.

I think they have them on red-eye flights, too. Probably depends on airline. You probably won't get them on Skybus. Or window shades, for that matter.

If Texas is almost Mexico, what does that make New Mexico?

I also think they reserve the stylish eye masks for longer flights. I got them on Delta. It might be newer cause I know I didn't get them when I went to South America though the flight was just as long. But asking may not hurt. Good luck fellow traveler.

We should do a few traveling tips as well - if it's dark in the plane, you don't really need to see the sunrise.

Question. Do you have to give the eye masks back? Because that would probably be the number one way of spreading conjunctivitis.

No, didn't you notice the stylish headband I wore last week?

Post-Run Tip of the Day

By Stephanie -
This is a tip for those who might run where giant swarms of gnats sometimes loiter by the side of the road. This tip stems from a run on the Mayan Riviera in Mexico, but I've encountered swarms of gnats in Virginia and Kentucky as well. After your run, always stop and look in a mirror before going into public. Otherwise, you might actually complete a transaction at the resort store and greet five people before realizing you have up to 15 gnats stuck to your face and neck.

We've all been there. We're looking at a site and keep refreshing to see if what we're looking for has been updated. But, often times our browsers will cache items on the page (especially images and Flash™ documents.) This enables faster page loads, and less data transfer, which is actually nice.

And, you don't want to empty your cache every time you look at a site. So, here's what you do. To get a page to refresh, and not draw from a cache, simply put a good old-fashioned question mark (?) at the end of your URL, and hit "Enter."
