My husband and I both travel a lot and have had many varied experiences abroad and here at home.
Last May getting to (and from) Antigua from Houston through Miami was the absolute WORST experience in Miami airport - bad enough for me to never want to fly through Miami again!
And then this July we had a bad experience going through Newark to Dublin but an easy one coming back.
But then again...
I've found that an attitude adjustment on MY part is all that is needed to make any annoying, irritating or disturbing experience easier to deal with. Afterall, we can't change what is happening outside of us - but we can change how we react. Life is actually 10% the actual experience and 90% our own reaction to it.
So...we have not had any trouble in in those same airports before and I am guess that it was just a matter of a bad day all around for us AND the customs people.
The world HAS changed and now is the time to be cautious but to also be generous with our spirit because we can make a difference with just a smile.
