Day 1: A long drive to JFK Airport. A long line through ticketing and security. Now we are sitting in the first Irish pub of the trip! However, it's a faux in the terminal in new York. Flight is out at 630.

Mistake #1: I ordered a bacon cheeseburger and while I waitited for it I thought it would be a good idea to exchange all of my money to euros before I payed for my buger! Hmm Maybe I should start thinking more.
