I’m going on a trip today. My destination is Edinburgh, which is the city I’ve visited most in the past year, together with Glasgow.

So, I have made this trip several times: in the car, to the airport, checking in, getting special assistance, getting on the plane, sitting down, taking off, falling asleep, touching down, getting off the plane, being wheeled through the airport, meeting my friend in arrivals, getting to his car, getting in his car, driving to his home, walking up the stairs, sitting down, being there.

But I still get so nervous. Especially the getting to the airport part and the special assistance thing. I’m always afraid they’ll lose part of my wheelchair, or that special assistance simply isn’t there.

But once I’m there: yay!

It’s currently The Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2010, which means there are all sorts of fun things to see and do in the city. But, since I won’t be getting there till later in the afternoon, I doubt we’ll be doing much today. I usually feel a bit wonky after flying anyway.

Sunday should be good fun though. Gonna be out all day, and then going to see Jon Fratelli at the Electric Circus, so that should be good!

Then home on Monday. I have to plan these trips short because UK houses usually don’t have a shower that is separate from the bathtub, so I am doomed to not shower and just wash at the sink, but one can only keep that up for so long, right?
