As always a delightful recap of your travels. I live vicariously through your travel photos and (humorous) descriptions such as this one. Although not funny whilst happening, they sure lend a great play by play after the fact. I trust AA is not going to be an option in the future? Anxiously awaiting photos. 🙂

Comment on 2019 Eastern Caribbean Cruise by Vacation at Sandals Barbados – R. Andrew Love's Blog

[…] In April 2019, we were extremely delayed flying home on American Airlines from Martinique, eventually arriving home about 24 hours later than originally planned. Since Martinique is a French territory and therefore politically part of the European Union, that means that the EU’s flight compensation regulation EC 261/2004 applied to our situation. Based on the circumstances of our delay, we were entitled to $400 each. I submitted a claim to American Airlines and they gave us a few options. We could choose to receive the $400 each in cash or if we accepted flight vouchers with AA instead they would give us $600 each. Wanting more value to put towards future travel, we chose the vouchers. […]

Was the flight that went through Seattle intentional to get to count another state? That is a wild flight path.

I’m looking forward to the pictures. What a range of temperatures on one vacation – from 90’s in Vegas to snow in Yellowstone.

Comment on Migrating from Haloscan and Blogger to WordPress by Kara

In reply to Heather.

Quantity is not as important as quality. I only blog when I have something interesting to say or mention. And with the advent of micro-blogging (Twitter, Facebook, etc.), shorter posts that would have been blogged just get sent via a different medium. Also, in an effort to practice programming in languages that I don’t use at work I am constantly looking for personal programming projects (i.e. the reworking of the blog mentioned in this post, Tree Climber (http://andrew.andrewandkara.com/2008/10/tree-climber/), etc.). Additionally, what would it say about me as a geek if I had made no changes and the comment functionality and the ability to create new posts had become broken forever. That’s just sloppy.

In reply to Shannon.

As I mentioned in the post you commented on, I moved our blogs off of Blogger as Haloscan is shutting down and Blogger is no longer supporting the FTP publishing method. Therefore, Blogger thinks I haven’t written any more posts, because it is looking at the Blogger database as opposed to looking at either the blog url (http://andrew.andrewandkara.com) or the new RSS feed for posts (http://andrew.andrewandkara.com/feed/). I have way more control of design and a larger feature set using a WordPress installation on our own hosting anyway.
