Once In a While, You Run Into the Nicest People!

For the most part, travel today is a frustrating experience with lots of delays, crowds, and rude people.  Once in a while, however, you run across some very nice people on airplanes!  This couple was sitting across the aisle from me on a recent flight:

President Jimmy Carter and his wife, Rosalyn.

Before we pushed back from the gate, he walked up and down the aisle and shook everyone's hand.  I understand this is his usual practice, but it was obvious that he enjoyed doing it.  As you can see, they were even understanding of those of us who wanted a picture!

So now that I've had a nice experience with some good people, I guess a can tolerate a few more flights with the frustrating and rude flyers!
