Yes, my son has been attending the military academy at West Point in New York. I have never liked to fly. I feel so out of control. And now who knows when someone is going to blow up his underwear! I practically kiss the ground when I get off a plane.

There aren't movies on short trips like this. It's only a couple hours, but I will bring my mp3 player to listen to music. I get airsick, so I don't know about reading. I have a Kindle that I will bring and see if I can read.

I know what an mp3 player is. I just don't have one. Yet.

Unless my smartphone has one and I don't know about it yet, lol.
