View from Floor 11
Fate sent us to the Bahamas for “February Vacation” (not to be confused with “April Vacation”) this year. What. A. Place. Our room was somewhere on the left – but who cares. Look at that building!

I haven’t flown since before that pandemic we had. Jetblue has made some slick upgrades to their seatback entertainment! And we landed somewhere nice.
